You know what a rocket is.
It goes on your CV now.
Start applying.Lance, are you suggesting JB's suggestion is unnecessary and overkill?Originally posted by jamesbrown View PostA foundational course in bicycle science should allow you to progress through moped science to tank science and, eventually, rocket science. You’ll need a top-up course for sciencing rockets w/ left hand drive.
That blagging it would be the way forward

I would have thought there was a pr0n move called ***** Rogers as well but it seems not.
Hey---- I've just had a brilliant idea. How about making a movie to avoid tax. Any issues with that anyone?

Originally posted by MrMarkyMark View PostHi all
I am currently contracting within British Aerospace as a General Maintenance Consultant. I would like to make the leap into becoming a Rocket Scientist contractor as they always seem to be in high demand and are paid very well (£100 minimum per hour here.)
My question is - what qualification/s do I need to make this leap? I did not go to university.
I have some rocket building experience from following this:-

but what qualification do I need to attain?
Many thanks
