Mat Picardal - Structural Engineering Life
Youtube Chanel - Description
I create weekly videos on:
- Helping civil and structural engineering students and graduates secure the best career opportunities in the structural engineering industry.
- Helping young structural engineers advance in their careers.
- Hints, tips, advice and my insights as a practicing structural engineer.
I'm a structural project manager in California with an undergraduate degree from Cal Poly Pomona and a master's degree from UC San Diego. My career so far has allowed me to design and manage various types of building structures, ranging from residential wood apartment buildings, commercial steel buildings, and concrete parking structures and towers.

[SpaceX] Launches & Events
Update on SpaceX launches:
Starlink Mision 8 - 04 June 2020
SpaceX is targeting Wednesday June 3 at 9:25 p.m. EDT, 1:25 UTC on June 4, for its eighth launch of Starlink satellites. Falcon 9 will lift off from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. A backup opportunity is available on Thursday, June 4 at 9:03 p.m. EDT, 1:03 UTC on June 5.
Falcon 9’s first stage previously supported the Telstar 18 VANTAGE mission in September 2018, the Iridium-8 mission in January 2019, and two separate Starlink missions in May 2019 and in January 2020. Following stage separation, SpaceX will land Falcon 9’s first stage on the “Just Read the Instructions” droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.
The Starlink satellites will deploy in an elliptical orbit approximately 15 minutes after liftoff. Prior to orbit raise, SpaceX engineers will conduct data reviews to ensure all Starlink satellites are operating as intended. Once the checkouts are complete, the satellites will then use their onboard ion thrusters to move into their intended orbits and operational altitude of 550 km.
