Commercialization of a High Altitude Platform
Starting a business in any endeavor is considered to be a laborious task fraught with failure, late nights, and a spartan lifestyle. I have been honored to say that this is all true to a certain extent. It is also an extremely rewarding experience despite the difficulties encountered in such a venture. This report seeks to convey to the reader my experience of one such startup through the International Space University's Masters program and my internship at NASA Ames Space Portal. The report is divided into two primary sections which chronicle my time. Part I is comprised of “The Basics” of the project which provides background and context of the proposed business to the uninitiated. The basics needed to be redefined upon arrival at space portal and this refinement is covered in this section. Part II details “A New Direction” where we transition from the basics to a new plan for the project and the work accomplished. This section covers the second half of the internship.
