River Randolph Astrophysics Internship at LASP Week 2
This week started off by taking Monday off because of the National holiday Juneteenth. On Tuesday Graham and I got straight back to working on the 3D printer. The current problem we were experiencing was that the z-axis sensor wasn’t working. We spent all Tuesday trying to figure out what the problem was and how […]
