§ The museum I work at serves double-duty as one of eleven NASA visitor centers so this week’s Artemis II mission brought a lot of infectious, excited energy to the building. I’ll admit I wasn’t especially interested in the Artemis project previously but watching four humans slingshot themselves around the moon was decidedly incredible.

In between Artemis activities I started experimenting with a few DWM3001 ultra-wideband development boards. I’ve had them for maybe a year but have been too intimidated to start until now. I still don’t have a concrete project in mind but it’s nice to get my hands moving and my brain spinning.


§ Remember that tire I finally replaced last week? Well it turns out it was probably fine all along and the issue was a cracked rim which is, of course, a much more expensive issue to rectify so my car was at the mechanic for most of the week. The crack was welded shut which should solve the problem for the time being. We’ll see.


§ That’s all I have for this week. It is not much but I’ll make up for it next week, I promise.
