Fermi Fridays

Welcome to Fermi Fridays! As we celebrated Fermi's 10 years in space, Friday become our special day. Every Friday, we discussed a topic having to do with the facinating science Fermi is doing, the technology that has been developed to make Fermi more productive, the amazing people that make it all happen, and the many ways that Fermi has inspired others.
