A point of clarification concerning a comment on this episode.

During the interview with Charlie Savoie, questions were asked about Gary Rosenfield's background and history with making rocket motors/where he had worked in the past.
One of the hosts stated Gary had worked for Enerjet.
That is incorrect. Gary was a big fan of Enerjet but he was in his teens/early 20s when Enerjet existed.
The first rocket company Gary worked for was Whittaker-Bermite Corporation of Santa Clarita, California (North of Los Angeles). He was a propellant chemist and worked on the development of the Mk36 low-smoke solid rocket motor for the AIM-9 Sidewinder missile.
Gary left Bermite and went to work for Aerojet in Sacramento, California.
It was while at Aerojet that Gary started up AeroTech in his garage.
Also working at Aerojet was Dan Meyer who Gary had met years earlier at NAR events.
Dan and Gary decided to set up their own professional rocket company and this became Industrial Solid Propulsion (ISP).
