飞行员兼研究者 Shannon Wong 上线个人网站，讲述其编程、飞行、物理与极地探险经历。
Okay, here’s the lore: → started programming at 10 → got suspended for getting into my school’s central servers at 10 → later built routing algorithms for fully autonomous delivery drones → worked in the @palantir ecosystem → received an offer from @anduril → learned to fly → earned my commercial certificate in 4 days → crossed the Atlantic 3x in piston aircraft as captain → flew through Greenland, Europe, the Middle East and India → nearly got detained after landing at a Greenland airstrip I apparently wasn’t authorized to use → later flew a beeline toward the USS Abraham Lincoln in the Strait of Hormuz → got intercepted by F-18s → got followed by a U.S. surveillance aircraft → somehow ended up on @CNN → got interested in physics → taught myself the math → published 3 sole-authored papers in Q1 scientific journals → currently working on 2 more → got interested in exploration → became the youngest elected Fellow in the history of the @RGS_IBG at 20 → now building a seven-continent aviation/science expedition including Antarctica → the Shackleton family is a patron → read political philosophy for fun → ended up writing a nonfiction book about it → published academic work in philosophy too → built scientific programs from scratch → took them to researchers and institutions operating at international scale → now collaborate with scientists working across @NASA, @esa, @CIRESnews and other major research institutions → took a 15-minute call at midnight → somehow came out of it with an Emergent Ventures grant @mercatus → did military-style Arctic operations training in the high Arctic → lived in a caravan for 3 months → got way too comfortable sleeping in airports → traveled solo through ~40 places in the last 3 months → apparently my ancestors were pirates lol After the expedition, I’m planning to start a deep-tech company.
