2014 SpaceX Internship Program

[weberr]

Is this for seniors in high school or senior citizens? I just turned 47 so in a few years I would qualify for a senior citizen.

No joking aside. I grew up watching the Apollo launches; I can even remember the Apollo 13 accident. The whole NASA thing was ingrained in my blood as my father and I would connect when it came to space. This is a wonderful opportunity and I thank Space-X for giving our youth this chance.

By the way, do you think Space-X would want a 47 year old intern janitor?

Send the letter(s) in Word or PDF format to the e-mail address provided. If you have a letter on paper, there are many ways to scan and convert to PDF. I use TurboScan on my phone. If the people who are writing the letter(s) want to send it to us directly, please have 'em send it to the same e-mail address, but make sure the students name is in the subject line.

And then they follow that one up with ANOTHER hop while Dragon hangs out at ISS... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwwS4YOTbbw

Gotta quit scarin' them cows, though! (That's at least the second time they've run from an F9R or Grasshopper, if you look through the other videos...)
