To communicate with the ELFIN CubeSats, we’ve built two antenna arrays on top of the Knudsen building at UCLA. In late 2020 (2 years after ELFINs launch), I worked with a few awesome EPSS staff (Emmanuel and Ryan) to do some deep maintenance and refurbishment of these arrays. Enjoy some fun shots, including a very rare peregrine falcon sighting!!!

Shot primarily on my trusty Fuji X-T3 with a 50-140 mm f2.8 lens.

And here’s me and Emmanuel installing a new L brace and rebalancing the South antenna array. Selfies are definitely very safe for work.
