General goals are:

*  Have a designated project manager
*  Hold regular meetings for brain storming, manufacturing, and testing
*  To learn from other's mistakes and successes (and of course our own)
*  Have everyone be committed to the project (whatever we finally decide
that is)
*  Create a schedule
*  Productive attitudes!


Technical goals are:

*By Black Rock 2005, have a flight article (as close as is feasible) LOX
paraffin motor ready for static test fire.  This motor will be designed to
produce a specific amount of thrust (to be determined by the group ASAP).
*To accomplish this achievement,  several sub-goals must be accomplished
(these are ideas of the direction we could take - I believe I am taking them
from a comment Evan made at the last meeting - design details to be
discussed and solved during meetings):
* Complete trouble shooting the small scale GOX static test set-up to the
point where thrust, chamber pressure and paraffin burn rate are essentially
understood
* Adjust the small scale static test set-up to fire with LOX and understand
it's performance
* Scale up what we have learned and prepare for the Black Rock static fire
*  to cross train team members on manufacturing
*  to understand how each aspect of the hybrid motor will relate to one
another, allowing us to optimize an efficient design
*  Be safe!
*  General technical goals beyond 2005 include a launch in 2006, then an
effort to examine the possibility of active guidance for a 2007 launch
(assuming computer systems and software are available).  Trying to address
active guidance at this point seems very premature.


My Personal goals:

*  To work towards a motor that will aid PSAS in obtaining it's ultimate
goal
*  To be a part of an awesome team of people
*  To be helpful and useful
*  To learn as much as I can
