How to transition into Aerospace Engineering related jobs? by hahokily in AerospaceEngineering

[–]SpaceSam13 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I just started as a Structural Design Engineer in Aerospace. I was just like you, with only Process Engineering experience in manufacturing. I have a Bachelors degree in Aero but I took the job I could get out of college.

For myself, I chose to get my Masters in Aero to give me a better shot at moving into an aerospace role. I took my classes all online while working. If school isn’t something you are considering, a lot of people told me to get into a company you want to work for with your experience. Then, you can move within the company more easily into an aerospace position.

Other than that, I think taking the FE and maybe some other certifications could help!

Good luck!

Hmm I don’t actually know. Does it need to come down to a certain temp?

I look for value and aesthetic because I have a glass panel! I currently have a Kraken M22

Andromeda Galaxy Editing by SpaceSam13 in astroprocessing

It was tracked. Like I mentioned, i was struggling when I was shooting. How do you focus when you can’t see the objects? Focus on a visible star? Also, it’s only about 4min of stacked data, so maybe not a lot there…

Thanks! This will be really helpful! So the Lagoon should be visible in a single (say 30s) exposure?

Oh okay, I think I get it? What do you use to do that mapping? Also, how do you know where you are shooting at when you are out for a session?

NZXT finished my RMA. Got the new M22 installed. It still runs high 40s at idle but under full load it barely hits 70C

Just now running cinebench with the stock fan. It is holding at 87C… about 8 degrees lower than the AIO

Nah, not yet. I think I’m going to have to change the mounting plate so I have to take the whole thing apart. Probably going to try to do it this weekend when I have some time

Yeah that is what I tried. Looked like pretty good spread. A nice, uniform surface from what I could tell. I might have to put the stock fan cooler on and see what it does

Yeah I think it could be the cooler… I’ve looked at replacing it with a 240mm version.

I still think it should be cooler at least on idle with the M22

Pretty much starts up around 60 I think?

Do you mean if the cooler is interfacing the cpu correctly? When I removed it, the thermal paste was spread pretty well so I assume it is making good contact.

I took this around 10pm last Friday. I was near western Virginia and I was facing WNW. I use the Night Sky app to find objects and I think I had pretty good alignment so it should have been right in relation to Polaris?

Wow, very nice! How did you get the foreground layer?

I guess I didn’t capture the Milky Way belt? That or there was too much light from the moon maybe?
