During our QRB presentation, sparks of praise flew our way as we received glowing feedback on our presentation skills, igniting a sense of accomplishment. However, amidst the thunderous applause, there was some confusion regarding the intricacy of soil parameters in our project. It seems some found themselves in a bit of a shock when trying to connect the dots in our soil-related discussions, making us realize the importance of this detailed explanation we neglected to include. Nevertheless, we’re charged up to address these concerns and ensure clarity strikes like lightning in future explanations. Moreover, our a dazzling recommendation to build a scaled-down model for testing lightning strike dissipation and grounding sparked both curiosity and amusement. We are now considered finding some systems to shock our model and validate our works. We’re grounded in our commitment to shed light on this electrifying topic and cultivate a fertile understanding among our audience, rooting our efforts in solid science and sparking a surge of excitement in the realm of lightning research. 

In other news we are charging ahead with our plans to visit the Georgia site and scheduling and booking is all currently in play, while we plan out our agenda for the site visit. We are planning to have some time with our liaisons to further discus our project in person and build these valuable connections. We will keep you all updated as we find out more details.
