I would like to see a subject heading for space engineering and space exploration topics. Like should there be a moon base, should the Ares V be developed, should NASA go with commerical providers like SpaceX, Solar Power Satellites when if ever will they take off, etc...
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I hear the General Astronomy section, and the Aerospace Engineering section are good places to post things like that.
 
MotoH, Aerospace Engineering sounds like the right place but :( I can not find it. Please point me in the right direction. Thanks.

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...
About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
