Farewell Astrodome
Farewell Astrodome. You will be remembered for hosting a kickass social-satirizing, "Bullitt"-parodying, Shelley Duvall-introducing, existential modern-Icarus-mythologizing Robert Altman film. At least that's what I'll remember it for. They held sports events there, right?

Hello Worlds: NASA Co-Op #3 Week 15
This year launched the inaugural dual FIRST Robotics Championships in Houston and St. Louis. Before, only one Championship dubbed "Worlds" was hosted where teams around the world competed for one title. Due to the growth of the teams involved in robotics, FIRST has decided to split Worlds into a North and South Championships with the intent to bring the winning alliance form each championship to battle it out during a live televised event. Unfortunately this means a Northern team will never be able to compete against a Southern team unless they win championships or pay to attend an out of state regional earlier in the season. There was ~700 teams, 15k students and 30k attendees!
My time volunteering was fantastically frantic! Resetting the Steamworks play field after each match for the robotics teams was a challenge requiring over 400 wiffle balls be picked up and dozens of yellow gears to be stacked.
Worked on the "Newton" FRC field. Winners from this field competed in the finals held in Houston's Minute Maid Park where their Astros baseball team plays. Logistics of getting 700 robotics teams into Minute Maid was a challenge that took longer than expected. There will be time for improvement as the southern robotics championship will be held in Houston for at least three more years.
The field had to be cleared within seven minutes to keep matches on schedule.
Robotics Houston Championship concluded with the announcement of he highest award, Chairman's, earned by team Thunder Down Under from Australia and fireworks!
Even the VIP seats did not have a good view of the final matches! Growing pains but lots of opportunity to improve over the next couple of years.
It is rumored the winners of the St.Louis and Houston Championships will go head to head at the FIRST Festival of Champions July Friday 28th - Saturday 29th, 2017. WAYS TO GET INVOLVED What is FIRST Robotics? Volunteer at a FIRST Robotics event or with a local team. Donate to FIRST Robotics. Read about my "Robo" Mater, Daredevils Robotics.

NASA Meets Super Bowl LI
Super Bowl has taken over Houston and NASA! VIPs have been touring all week with cameras flashing and film rolling. Despite the excitement work at Johnson continues uninterrupted. During work hours we are the entertainment viewed by the VIPs as we test, train and support space missions. In fact, today I conducted user testing in the Space Vehicle Mock Up Facility, a facility that feels like a fish bowl as tour goers check out Space Station and Orion training mock-ups. Heads down and clip boards out we user tested a device for on board International Space Station. However, last week NASA put together an opportunity to meet retired NFL players during lunch to get our Super Bowl fill before the big week.
NASA has a huge presence at Super Bowl events and is expected to be featured during on the big screen during pre-game shows and game. There has been film crews running around Johnson and other related centers, I will be watching for some NASA love on TV Sunday! Here is a TV Guide of when coverage will start for those who don't get a newspaper: http://www.tvguide.com/listings/ The Fox Super Bowl Kick Off starts at 12:00pmCT Noon and the game starts at 5:30pmCT. Already NASA has taken over downtown Houston with the Orion Capsule, space booths and a giant drop tower that virtually send you to Mars and back. NASA has also made a number of Super Bowl related videos and social media posts found below...
