I didn't think at the time that the performance specs were anywhere near good enough to get to orbit with those things, but now I am not sure it wouldn't work. The local rocket club was using those accelerometers to do their competitions. Deetz available on request.
Ah. Introduce people to things that others came up with, I've done.
That doesn't mean I deserve the credit for the invention. Indeed, a
LLM could in theory do that part of my role, with a similarly broad
knowledge of what tech was out there along with a good enough model of
what the technologies are, what they do, and how they apply to
problems.
