Thank you so much for taking the time to do this AMA, I have a few questions.

  1. I'm currently a Software Engineering student and I think being a flight controller sounds like an amazing job. What sorts of paths can be taken to get a position such as yours or what can a student do to get closer to having such a job in the future?
  2. What is an average day like as a flight controller?
  3. Do you have any favorite stories or experiences to share? I'd love to hear them!
  4. What is your favorite experiment that has been conducted on the ISS in the last year?

This tweet is almost definitely related to a personal project Brandon was pushing out. It was a feature length movie based around Minecraft.

Unfortunately, the project involved a $600,000 or so kickstarter and Mojang had to stop him because they don't allow that kind of stuff based on their IP and it seems Brandon somehow hadn't gotten permission to do it. Its good to see they are trying to work things out.

Edit: Actually just looked at his twitter myself and it wasn't that he hadn't spoken to them. Mojang had a problem with the rewards setup for donations which is understandable.
