Machinists to the Stars
It's the middle of the night at JPL, and the usual dozens of deer are
on their nightly foraging rounds across the campus. Mars is up. So is
the Moon. And so are nine machinists in the lab's high-precision
fabrication shop, working the second shift that ends between
midnight and 3 a.m. They are part of the round-the-clock team
turning out odd-shaped pieces of metal that will become robots
destined for Mars.
