Hello everyone, and welcome to my user page. In here, you will find a little something about me, my interests and contributions, and my info boxes. Feel free to leave me a note on my discussion page if you have any questions or comments.
Interests and Contributons
[edit]My academic interests include mechanical and nuclear engineering, materials science and nanomaterials, ancient history, prehistory, and the history of the Earth, evolution, space exploration, space colonization, and terraforming, and global climate change and global warming, among other things.
