Love my job!

After getting out of the military it took me a couple of years to find a job worthy of making a career out of, but this summer I landed a terrific job doing logistics for a very small precision machining company. Don't be fooled when I say very small company, we do BIG things for big companies. Yesterday I shipped off some parts going to the International Space Station, and last week we completed 2 of these bad boys. Any guesses to what it is? 8-)

This doesn't go into space, it normally cruises around 30,000 feet, often in an orbit.

It houses a really big mirror, in space, which reflects the sunlight and heat onto my back garden throughout the cold Winter months....

That's a good idea Fozzer, but incorrect. Heat does come out of it though.
