"The information I learned basically dealt with a lot of the topics and subjects that I'm actually working with right now and some projects."

Neil Dennehy Promo

Principal Engineer Clint Cragg introduces the NESC Academy and its fourth offering, Satellite Attitude Control Systems (ACS) with Neil Dennehy, originally offered in Maryland in June 2006. Dennehy emphasizes that the course is meant for the younger generation at NASA, to teach them lessons they cannot learn in school and anchor these lessons in reality. Invited instructor Dr. Sanjay Garg reminds students that just because something works on a laptop or in simulation, there is no guarantee it will work in the real world.
