Projects

This section contains important project documents, such as student reports and National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) progress reports, as well as project photos. The major reporting milestones are distributed across all three semesters of 16.83X. During the initial "conceive-design" phase of the project (16.83), reports are conceptual and more frequent. As the project proceeds through implementation (16.831) into operation (16.832), there are many more details to report.

National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) Progress Reports

Prof. Miller, a course instructor, sent regular progress updates to the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), a course sponsor. Work on the project continued through Summer 2002. Some students in the course were hired as student researchers to advance the project during the summer, although no for-credit course was offered over this period.
