1. Updates:
VJB paper selected for journal. Due Oct. 6 by email reply.
See Sept. 8 11:18 am email
(https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#search/wmsci/FMfcgzGljlkzzBbjpdJQMtBTvxprnRXs)
for instructions. RS will spearhead the submittal process.
MH paper update? It was accepted and now we should only have
to wait for it to appear.
PT presentation for conference. He uploaded the video (about
5 min. 40 sec.) to their website yesterday. He played the video for this
meeting. Congrats!
PT candidacy exam updates? He will send a revised research
plan to the committee. He will email it to us for comments as well.
What is the difference RMSE and SSR or RSS (root mean
squared error vs. sum of squared residuals or residual sum of squares)?
Discussion. Error is about deviation from the true value, while residual is
more about deviation from a predicted value.
Financials status.
As of 6/25/21, PT paid $400 for FTC and the college has
agreed to reimburse him for it.
2. Reading and discussion:
Hu
et al. 2015, A survey on life prediction of equipment. We did not do any
readings today. For next time, we are up to section 3.2.2, item (5), so we can
start from there.
---------------------------------------Below are some ideas
for future discussion----------------------
We found that the paper at
https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-40896-1_3 seems like a good
paper for us to read.
MH suggests a short book called Future Spaceflight
Meditations, a cosmist perspective, by Jiulio Prisco, physicist formerly with
the ESA.
MH suggests Pantelis Koutroumpis, The Productivity Paradox,
a report.
3. Background literature update.

Some interesting videos are at the Kartik Gada channel such
as at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuRX67CJhaOT98Jdjh85CEQ which we
discussed previously.
For general reference here are some generic questions about
articles (and videos):
What is the source?
What is the most significant advance in the human knowledge presented in the
paper?
Why is that advance important?
What important questions arise from the paper for future research?
What important questions would it be nice if the paper answered, but does not
answer?
What does the paper present that is novel (no one else has provided that
before)?
What is the relevance of the paper to our satellite research goals?
Questions from the group?
