STK software

Manfred Steinkellner — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 00:02:57 +0000

Hey folks,

as I keep working my thesis I was wondering about getting an STK version from AGI for modelling some problems.
I was wondering if anybody out there is interested in getting one too, for their own, non-profit purpose. If that is the case we could simply have a talk with AGI and see if there are any chances to get "special" licenses for spacegen members.

Gimme a shout what you think about it.

Cheers,
Manfred - NPoC Austria

life is such an experience, yet we sometimes just drift from day to day. sometimes we are too busy to take notice of another day turning into yesterday, sometimes our attention is fixed on tomorrow we dont notice today...... or we wish we had a different life altogether and barely live the one we have!
but for all of us there is one thing we wish for that might seem impossible to get in this life ...for whatever reason, but at least we can dream right?

dreaming has its advantages...
-its private and we dont have to tell anyone,

Dear All,

We SGAC can ask help to UN,European space agency/NASA for data on tourist/cultural heritage spots in under developed countries.

Then that data we can share with every countries national point of contact. This data we can share with our government/civil society/ business communities.

we can show them how space technology can play a good role for tourism sector and how can government/country can be benefited by using space technology.

For motivation of government/civil society/business people we need to do something real.
