Alexandra “Alex” Barnett, Executive Director/CEO
Alex has been working with space artifacts for about five years
as a result of putting together the National Space Centre in Leicester,
UK ( www.spacecentre.co.uk
). She hopes to make it into space one day, probably in a Russian
capsule!
Jim Kosinski, AV Coordinator
Sometimes referred to as Chabot's resident Space
Cowboy, Jim Kosinski received his Master's in Multimedia from
California University, Hayward in 1996 and now finds himself boldly
exploring the vast reaches of cyberspace for as much Soyuz information
as his wetware can handle. Recently he lost over 20lbs to pursue
a more "active" role in the restoration of the Soyuz
capsule. Since a child he has had a fascination and love of space
exploration and enjoys sharing the adventure with as many people
as he can.
Maybe even you?!
We will be hiring someone in the next couple of months to work
full time on our Soyuz AND the other Space Artifacts that we have.
A full job description and application form will be posted shortly.
You will need to be physically able to crawl around in the capsule,
have a real passion about space artifacts, be persistent and able
to spend days (if need be) cleaning things using cotton swabs
(a conservation background would be helpful), update the website,
fundraise, oh, and if you can read and speak Russian, so much
the better!

HESCO performs high energy x-ray inspections for heavy industry
such as power plants, bridges, and refineries and supports the
NASA space program with the research and development projects
for new space vehicle and rocket technologies. Current inspection
projects vary from the East
Span Project of SF-Bay Bridge, the Richmond-San
Rafael Earthquake Retrofit project as well other construction
site throughout the Bay Area and US, as well as Space Shuttle
developmental inspections using Real-time x-ray video inspection
technology.
HESCO uses a portable high-energy x-ray inspection machine, known
as a linear accelerator, to inspect very thick sections, up to
16 inches of steel equivalent and 54” of concrete. The x-ray
beam is collimated and focused into a forward beaming 30 degree
cone. They also use lower intensity x-rays to inspect steel below
2 inches thick.
