    Curious Droid is an incredible channel. Highly recommend checking him out if you have even a mild interest in aerospace tech.

    He explains things clearly and concisely and doesn't try to become a cult of personality like many other YouTubers. Just a wealth of well-explained interesting information.

    The part I worked on was monitoring the effects of the sun on satellite communication (disruption of the ionosphere - called scintillation).

    This was about a decade ago, but I used an FPGA and GNU Radio which was really quite cool! Especially as a post-sophomore intern.
