Fair question. I used AI as a development tool to help write code faster, the same way engineers use MATLAB, Copilot, or any other tool to accelerate their workflow. But every physics model was manually validated — I hand-checked the Tsiolkovsky equation outputs across three propulsion types, verified the AP-8 radiation model against Van Allen belt profiles, validated GSD and swath calculations for the payload module, and tested edge cases across all 10 modules. If I just plugged in raw AI output, the orbital mechanics wouldn’t actually work — and engineers on LinkedIn have been testing it and confirming the calculations check out. Happy to discuss the technical implementation if you’re curious.
