1 year agoI grew up in Alabama but live in Colorado now. If I were forced to live somewhere in Alabama, Huntsville would be at/near the top of my list. But it’s still Alabama, and I’d still waaay rather live in Colorado. It obviously doesn’t keep everyone away, and there’s a lot of inertia there with all the existing space/rocket/defense industry in Huntsville. But is Space Command even going to be hiring heavily in the engineering fields that are concentrated in Huntsville? (That’s a real question- I’d guess they’re not hiring primarily engineers that they’d find in Huntsville, but I don’t know.)
It’s got what plants crave
