    A U.S. Marine once asked Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific's Spencer Koroly for a rugged 3D printer that could print and sustain a robot on deployment; Spencer made it happen, but hasn't seen him since. If anyone bumps into him, can you let him know Spencer's team made his dreams come true? In this episode, Chris and Spencer talk advanced expeditionary manufacturing, Marines breaking stuff and pushing 3D printers to the limit, and cool things Spencer prints on his own 3D printer at home. Chris Raney is the Deputy Executive Director and Technical Director at NIWC Pacific, and Spencer Koroly is a project manager in the autonomous technologies division of the Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Department at NIWC Pacific. Chris started as a New Professional — NIWC Pacific hires set out on a two-year path to explore, invent, and find their place in the world of naval information warfare — but once an NP, always an NP.

    T.S. Eliot once said, “Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood.” Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Panama City Division’s Daniel Sternlicht, Ph.D., and Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific’s Anson Brune kick this one off with a poem, then walk us through the evolution of sonar technology from World War II to present and into the future. What will it take to develop man-made sonar technology as sophisticated as nature’s — the ability of dolphins to detect mines hidden under ocean-floor sediment? Sternlicht is a senior scientific technology manager and the distinguished scientist for littoral sensing technologies at NSWC Panama City Division, and Anson Brune is a mechanical engineer and branch head in the Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Department at NIWC Pacific. He’s also a former New Professional — NIWC Pacific hires set out on a two-year path to explore, invent, and find their place in the world of naval information warfare — but once an NP, always an NP.

    Anu Venkatesh, Ph.D., a neuroscientist for the Cyber S&T Department, talks with Michael O’Brien, an engineer with the Cryogenic Electronics and Quantum Research Branch, about why he’s putting quantum SQUIDS in very cold backpacks (as in, -321ºF cold). Hint: the SQUIDS are less...well, squid, and more about superconducting quantum sensors. The two both started their careers at Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific as New Professionals (NPs). NIWC Pacific NP hires set out on a two-year path to explore, invent, and find their place in the world of naval information warfare. Anu and Michael are both former NPs - but once an NP, always an NP - who also talk about the different tours they took as NPs, the pursuit of knowledge even in fields they aren’t trained in, and where to rock climb in San Diego.
