Max Yasgurs Dairy Farm
what's in a name - argon[one]
When my daughters were in middle school, I sponsored a club at their school called SpaceX. These SpaceX kids and I met once a week from September through May and learned about space travel. We performed science experiments, took field trips to places like Space Camp, Arnold Engineering [astronaut training facility], and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. We entered a contest every year in which the kids designed a space colony... everything from propulsion systems to government. They all loved it. I loved it. It was exciting and fun and they were learning without actually realizing just how much they were learning.
The club was so popular that as the kids graduated from eight grade and moved into high school, they wanted to keep the club going, so we started one at the high school called ADT [Aerospace Design Team]. Once again we designed and space colonies and sumbitted them to a contest sponsored by NASA's Ames Research Center in California. Every year we entered, we won first place. It was awesome. My favorite colony design during those years was called Argon One, a colony in orbit around Titan. The name Argon One brings back a lot of great memories of working with this group of intelligent, energetic, outgoing teenagers. So I called this blog Argon[one] as a dedication to the hard work and determination of today's youth. Mike Baldwin's PosterousI grew up in the sixties in the mountains of North Carolina. I spent a lot of time as a boy hiking and exploring. At 16, 5 buddies and I piled into a red and white Volkswagen van and embarked on a great adventure that took us to upstate New York. We had no idea what we were about to experience when we parked our van in the ditch 20 miles from Max Yasgur's dairy farm on August 15, 1969 and walked for six hours to reach the greatest gathering of young people and musicians ever assembled... half a million of us... at Woodstock.
