Hello science forum!
I am a blossoming engineer. My goals are as follows: Get a bachelors in Mechanical Engineering, Use connections i have in the aerospace business to get myself a year internship, Work at various locations to get a vast understanding of the economics & aerospace business in general, Use the money to go back packing across the world to look for people i need of various professions to hire when i start a company, go back home to start a company off of the people i have that will invest in me, expand and attempt to one day join the commercial space industries that will start in my life time.
Currently i`m at step one. I recently finished Canadian highschool but because of various reasons across the board i was shafted from having the benifits of knowing about IPslashAdvanced Placement classes that now basically give me access to top-tier universities. To prove my worth i am going to do my own self-studying of various studies such as Fundamentals of Astrodynamics. Including the PAT & an ELQ (Extended Learning Qualification) which is a neat little thing that lets you choose a question and answer it via a project in my case to showcase my abilities to learn. I can do this because i am in the process of acquiring a British citizenship via descent. I have the resources available to me to go to any schooling in the world & funding for self-projects because reasons. I want to use this for the good of all those without opportunity.
Enough about me; i need help from this forum because i'm finding it really difficult to find Engineers/Maths people/Physicists to talk to anywhere else on the internet about improving my skills. I would appreciate books & resources (such as websites or programs) I can self-study to teach myself like i am currently doing with Feynmans Lectures on Physics & Fundamentals of Astrodynamics. I am looking for Aero & Astro related subjects.
Any help is much appreciated, thank you.
Cheers,
Future Engineer Huestan
