"Even rocket science is no rocket science."
12 years ago today Jesco von Puttkamer died. Born in 1933 in #Leipzig, Germany he migrated to the US in 1962 and started working as an #aerospace engineer at #NASA until his death.
Until 2000 he was an Honorate Professor at the University of Applied Sciences in #Aachen, Germany. I was lucky to attend one of his lectures in the late 1990s where he made the above statement.
