Another aspie marooned on this planet

Post Reply New Topic

Hi all! I am an 18 year old from the desolate deserts of Utah.

I was diagnosed with Aspergers ages ago and I knew a bit about it, but I only recently started doing more research on the topic and I definitely don't regret it because I am understanding more about some of my tendencies and some aspects of my personality. I say I am marooned on this planet not just because I am an aspie on the wrong planet forum, but because one of my special interests in space travel and I am determined to get off this planet at least once in my life, weather it be via space tourism or becoming an astronaut. Until then though, I will just have to finish learning how to lucid dream so I can mess around in my own simulated universe.

Anyway, I am very exited to join this community. I will see you around

Hey Mike welcome.

Welcome! It's cool that you want to visit space. Where in particular to you want to go in space?

Welcome to the site, mikeman7918!

I'm not really too picky about that. With the current travel times though, I wouldn't want to go anywhere further then Mars. I doubt I will ever have the opertunity to go any further anyway.

My plan is that I will make myself the idea canidate. I won't be very dependent on being accepted though. I plan on majoring in physics in college, learning Russian, becoming a pilot, and probobly working for NASA as a member of the ground team for a while. I already have a fairly in depth understanding of orbital mechanics and I am working on memorizing Hoffman's equations.

I am in the right age range that I might be a part of NASA's manned Mars mission planned for 2030. It is possible however unlikely that you might be talking to one of the first people who will walk on Mars

Welcome to Wrong Planet!
