I was an astronomer, working for a scientific institute. However, my
two-years-contract was about to end, and at the same time the new satellite
telescope my institute had built failed half an hour after it was placed in
orbit. With my chances for a new contract thus reduced, I searched for an
alternative and found the TW position I still hold.
