I read a recent interview with 93 year old Harold Rosen. He is the inventor of geosynchronous communications satellites—the satellite systems we use today to communicate and transmit data around the world instantly.
Syncom, the world’s first geostationary communications satellite, launched in 1963, was born of Rosen’s ingenuity, and he is still consulted on new satellites. Quote:

With the price of raw materials these days it might soon be worthwhile to turn the ISS into a re-cycling center!
I bet a lot of that is pretty high quality metal also. Somebody needs to come up with a solar-powered forge. |

He retired from Boeing, but is still an active consultant. He was interviewed for the Boeing magazine, Frontiers.
