So I've recently acquired my internship but I only then found out that it's going to be at this place called SPAWAR. I had heard about this place but I wasn't quite sure what they were or what they do exactly so I did some research. In this assignment my task would normally be to transcribe an interview with my mentor however when I went to go ask Ms. Lisa about who my mentor is she replied that I'm going to go in blind. This seemed a bit strange to me but there must be some kind of reason since this is a government facility. I also had to provide a lot of my information including my social security number so that they could run a background check. But anyway, because I can't interview my mentor then I just have to write whatever I find out about SPAWAR and write more about my internship process. I found out that SPAWAR stands for The Space And Naval Warfare Systems Command. So I'm really excited because that place just sounds so cool. I looked through their website and found out a lot of stuff about them such as the things they've developed.One thing that stood out quite a bit was some kind of beam used in aircrafts that would be able to disable vehicles. I don't know just where I'll be working here or on what but I do know that whatever it is it has to do with botany, computers, and photography. I have a friend who interned at SPAWAR last year and he says that he had a really good time there so I'm expecting that whatever I end up doing over there, it's going to be a fun and interesting time.
