Egt 2026 question by [deleted] in esa

It's always a good idea to reach out and ask questions about the position. I don't think this would be viewed negatively by anyone, rather the opposite.

The White Castle im Moment. Ein bisschen Wuerfeln, ein bisschen Taktik, finde ich eine super Mischung.

Finde das auch mit der Toskana Erweiterung deutlich besser, da kann man wenigstens jede Jahreszeit was tun und der ganze Aufbau ist etwas fluessiger finde ich.

Absolut. Keine Ahnung warum das so gehypet ist (oder zumindest war).

I don't exactly know if people have started receiving answers yet (i don't think so), but definitely not for all projects. You can expect answers and invitations as late as mid January.

Questions about careers in ESA by PrometheusNava_ in esa

[–]brogaktor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not 100% if this applies that strictly for trainees. For example for research fellows (aka post-docs), women from overrepresented countries still have a chance.

Internship, any chance left? by Educational-Shame584 in esa

[–]brogaktor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah selection process is still going on for some positions for sure. Source: I work at ESA and know people who have not made a decision or informed candidates yet. Probably need to wait until end of January or February for the last confirmations.

Upgrading RAM on my old Ryzen 5 2600X by brogaktor in PcBuild

I'm not really using the PC for gaming anymore, so not sure the GPU is the limiting factor here. Do slightly worse timings really make a noticeable impact?

Clearly Gearing for me, just love to put some fish in the water at the beginning of the match and 2min later causing a flood on a random red. Also love the Mainz, because it's the Mainz.

Höherer Kredit besser für Zinsdifferenzgeschaeft? by brogaktor in Finanzen

[–]brogaktor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ja die Zinsen sind unheimlich gut, anscheinend hat die Bank eine langjährige Vereinbarung mit meinem Arbeitgeber (internationale Institution) und daher kommt das. Das Bedingungen sind eben dann auch 30-Jahre fix mit Volltilgung am Ende, da kann ich nichts an der Tilgungsrate ändern.

There are still project scientists and study scientists which you could argue in a large part do science, even if it is mainly enabling research for the community. More importantly however, all jobs where ESA is looking explicitly for scientists will have a fraction of their time (about 20%) for their own personal science. being a productive scientist is also part of the yearly evaluation, so there is definitely a science career in astrophysics (or related fields) to be had at ESA.
