He is currently based in San Francisco and can be found @gorongo. \nDaniel Faber\nDaniel Faber has over 20 years of space technology leadership\, building and launching a dozen satellites for asteroid searches\, environmental monitoring\, telecommunications and human habitation. As a serial entrepreneur\, his first company developed a unique mining instrumentation technology utilizing gamma ray spectroscopy\, following which he worked on nuclear fusion reactors and then Antarctic communications. Familiar with the economics of deep sea mining\, Mr. Faber became CEO of Deep Space Industries where he secured millions in financing from VC and governments and grew sales from zero to nearly $10 million. With DSI he successfully changed global perceptions and regulations around space resources and positioned the company to systematically create and commercialize technology for asteroid mining. Daniel has an engineeing background and MBA’s from both UCLA Anderson and National University of Singapore. He now leads Orbit Fab\, a two-year-old venture backed start-up in Silicon Valley that has already deployed its first two propellant tanker test-bed in Earth orbit for propellant transfer trials and recently became the first private company to resupply the International Space Station with water. \nSven Eenmaa \nSven Eenmaa is a Director of Investment and Economic Analysis at the ISS U.S. National Laboratory\, where he leads the organization’s engagement with investor community and is responsible for economic analysis of companies and flight projects to optimize the use of the ISS National Lab’s resources. Prior to joining the ISS National Lab\, Mr. Eenmaa served for over 16 years as an equity analyst and investment banker with leading Wall Street firms in New York and San Francisco\, advising investors and companies across emerging sectors of energy\, industrial\, telecommunications\, and technology industries\, and working on financing and strategic transactions that raised over $12 billion dollars of capital. Mr. Eenmaa received his MBA in finance and strategy from the Yale School of Management\, and graduated with BSc Summa Cum Laude from Indiana Wesleyan University. \n  \nMembers: $34\, \nNon-members: $44\, \nStudents: $24\, valid student ID required at the door \nDinner Buffet is included with admission.\nPrices will go up after February 20. \n  \nRegister here: \nhttps://aiaa-sf.org/registration/ \nShare this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window)

SUMMARY:AIAA Banquet 2019
DESCRIPTION:Annual Banquet at the USS Hornet:\n50th anniversary of Apollo 11\nA dinner meeting\, awards session\, exhibit\, and guided tour.\nA great occasion to visit this prime national historic landmark linked to Aerospace Engineering in the San Francisco Bay Area: the US Navy aircraft carrier USS Hornet picked up the famous crew of Apollo 11 after their return to earth and ‘splashdown’ in the Pacific Ocean. This is a great event to bring your family and friends\, and the future pilots and aerospace engineers of the next generation! \nDuring this event\, we will have a dinner in buffet style in the ship’s officers wardroom\, a talk about the Apollo 11 Earth Landing System\, given by an engineer who was directly involved in its development\, an awards session\, and finally there will be a special Apollo 11 themed guided tour aboard the ship\, including a special exhibit on the same theme. \n  \nTalk: The Apollo 11 Earth Landing System by Anthony “Mac” Smith \nThis talk will consist of two main parts. The first part focuses on the pre-Apollo history\, and gives a 10-year timespan overview of several milestones of the space program up to\, and including\, Apollo 11. The second part elaborates on the personal experiences of the speaker by means of a pre-recorded interview which was made for the Hornet Museum Archives. There will be an opportunity for Q&A at the end of the presentation. \nAnthony “Mac” Smith has over fifty years of relevant technical and management experience in reliability/ availability/maintainability (RAM)\, component and system design\, hardware test and evaluation\, data management\, product assurance\, system safety\, product RAM and operational readiness reviews\, and plant maintenance optimization via the RCM methodology. He received a BSc in Mechanical Engineering at the John Hopkins University in 1953 and an MSc in Mechanical Engineering from Drexel University in 1961. He served among others as platoon leader in the US Army\, spent more than 20 years at General Electric in the divisions of Missile & Space\, Jet Engines\, and Nuclear\, and is currently still a consultant for projects in the energy\, aerospace and industrial sectors. He is also an internationally recognized expert in the area of maintenance strategies and optimization of preventive maintenance programs for complex plants. \nBusiness casual attire suggested.
