Seriously, a lifelong Californian and former aerospace engineer, I spent several decades designing spacecraft systems hardware at Lockheed Missiles & Space, Co., where a career high was five years working on a recently declassified project codenamed AZORIAN that secretly and successfully retrieved a Soviet era naval submarine from the deep Pacific north of Hawaii.
