When I arrived in Arizona 4 years ago to help them build their entrepreneurship program, I had already spent over 15 years in Silicon Valley – the mecca for entrepreneurship (and venture capital). Needless to say I was cynical and underwhelmed by the scope and quality of the entrepreneurial community, but I wasn’t surprised or disappointed. Most areas outside of the “big 3” (Silicon Valley, NY, Boston) or the up-and-coming-3 (Denver, Austin, LA) lack the culture, critical mass or role models to sustain a vibrant entrepreneurial community. Phoenix was no different, and it wasn’t the fault of the entrepreneurs or other talented would-be entrepreneurs. Again, without a critical mass of role models (successful entrepreneurs), supporting companies, capital and a culture of risk and innovation – it just doesn’t happen. But it did happen in Arizona- particularly in the Phoenix metro area. After 4 years, we hit the top spot in the country for entrepreneurial activity. It wasn’t due to any one silver bullet. It was a combination of simultaneous and independent efforts by many individuals and institutions, all committed to stimulating entrepreneurship in the region. Some of the efforts were predictable – other regions have used similar techniques and failed. If these efforts weren’t buoyed by other activities and other individuals, they might have fizzled in Arizona too. But the synergy worked, and continues to work – primarily due to these influences:
Arizona State University
First and foremost, Michael Crow, the President of ASU deserves a lot of credit for his leadership. He made Entrepreneurship a top priority as one of his tenets of “The New American University”; Entrepreneurship is embedded in every college and in every department. And then of course there’s Skysong– which has been been a leader and catalyst, acellerating entrepreneurship activity in the region ever since Gordon McConnell took the helm last year.
Gangplank and the New Acellerators
Sure, New York and Silicon Valley have acellerators: Programs where they get a half dozen companies to spend a summer hoping to get a prototype they can demo before VCs. Rather than placing a few bets that might enrich a few companies and investors, Gangplank is more concerned with building a solid community and a permanent ecosystem for entrepreneurs. “Gangplanks” are part incubators, acellerators, hackspaces, workspaces, learning spaces, technology centers and community centers. Each one is a multifaceted combination of active partnerships between entrepreneurs, government, university and community. Under Derek Neighbors‘ leadership and tireless hard work, Gangplank has recently opened it’s third location, and has inspired others to start similar hybrid acellerators such as LaunchSpot, AZ Disputors, and Cohoots.
Mentors and Angels
Arizona may be in the desert, but there is no Sand Hill Road, like in Silicon Valley, concentrated with billions of dollars in venture capital along valuable connections and advice – the vital fuel for entrepreneurial startups. In the desert, it takes more than just money and savvy to nurture growth let alone tranform the area into the country’s #1 entrepreneurial region: It takes vision, patience and commitment – embodied by veteran entrepreneur, mentor and angel investor Francine Hardaway and her partners at Stealthmode. Dr. Hardaway sets the pace for committed mentorship and evangelaism among a handful of Arizona professionals who regularly work with fledgling companies and young entrepreneurs – making sure they get the attention and direction they need. Along with others like Jim Goulka of Arizona Technology Investment Form and Dee Harris of Desert Angels, they not only invest, but they organize, connect, and make sure their considerable infuence and expertise benefits the young entrepreneurs of Arizona who need it most.
Government
“We’re here from the government and we’re here to help” is what you’d expect – complete with tax breaks, proclamations, ribbon cuttings and photo-ops – none of which benefit struggling high-tech entrepreneurs. Most politicians and officials would rather take meetings with the CEO of the billion dollar corporation in their district than with a few entrepreneurs still working out of garages. In Arizona, the local officials have been particularly engaged with entrepreneurs in the trenches – not only by creating and supporting entrepreneur friendly programs such as Innovation Arizona, the Arizona Commerce Authority and the Arizona Innovation Challenge that fund entrepreneurship and innovation, but also by interacting with entrepreneurs at networking events and meetings. And like the mentors and angels, these officials really seem to get a sense of pleasure in connecting entrepreneurs with the help and resources they need.
The Entrepreneurs
And of course, it’s the entrepreneurs themselves that make Arizona the #1 place in the country for entrepreneurial activity. This isn’t some obvious, trivial point. It’s not easy being an entrepreneur in a region isolated from the major tech and financial hubs; these vital aspects of the Silicon Valley-like ecosystem than many take for granted simply did not exist here until a few short years ago. Networking events, acellerators, coworking spaces, the informal collaboration networks that entrepreneurs in other regions take for granted all had to be created in the past few years – often by the busy entrepreneurs themselves. In most other regions where these support systems don’t exist, the talent entrepreneurs simply relocate to Silicon Valley, New York or Boston. The Arizona entrepreneurs stuck it out and worked hard to make it work. And it bears repeating: The highly respected Kauffman Foundation’s annual report on the state of Entrepreneurship found that Arizona has the highest entrepreneurial activity in the United States.
I am not surprised. These days, it’s like living in Silicon Valley during the days when Steve Jobs and Bill Gates were getting started, and attending “home brew club meetings”, or during the early dotcom days when Jim Clark was walking around the Stanford campus looking for a student who had heard of a “web browser.” I am not surprised. And I am proud and excited to be in Arizona, at this time in history.
The MRO 2.4-meter (7.9 ft) telescope is a Nasmyth design on an azimuth-elevation (az-el) mount. The telescope is capable of slew rates of 10 degrees per second, enabling it to observe artificial objects in low Earth orbit. The telescope is also used for asteroid studies and observations of other solar system objects.[4]The MRO 2.4-meter achieved first light on October 31, 2006, and began regular operations on September 1, 2008, after a commissioning phase that included tracking near-Earth asteroid 2007 WD5 for NASA.[5]
The telescope's primary mirror has a complicated history. It was built by Itek as part of a competition for the contract for the Hubble mirror (although it has a different prescription than the one used to construct the Hubble). When Perkin-Elmer was chosen instead as the Hubble contractor, the mirror was passed to a classified Air Force project. When this project was in turn discontinued, the mirror was transferred to the Magdalena Ridge Observatory, along with a blank for the secondary.[6][7]
As of May 2008, the facility is under a multi-year contract with NASA to provide follow-up astrometry and characterization data on near-Earth asteroids and comets as part of Spaceguard, and also collaborates with the Air Force to track and characterize satellites in GEO and LEO orbits.[8] On October 9, 2009, New Mexico Tech scientists used instruments on the MRO 2.4-meter and at the Etscorn Campus Observatory to observe controlled impacts of two NASA Centaur rockets at the southern polar region of the moon as part of the LCROSS Project.[9][10]
On October 23, 2015, it was announced that the MRO telescope will receive funding from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in early 2016 to monitor the launch and re-entry of commercial space vehicles from Spaceport America.[11]
The Magdalena Ridge Optical Interferometer (MROI) is an optical and near infraredinterferometer under construction at MRO. When the MROI is completed, it will have ten 1.4 m (55 in) telescopes located on three 340 m (1,120 ft) arms. Each arm will have nine stations where the telescopes can be positioned, and one telescope can be positioned at the center. The telescopes and their enclosures will be moved with a customized crane. Light from the telescopes' primary mirrors will be directed along the arms to the Beam Combining Facility (BCF). These pipes will be evacuated of all air in order to reduce distortions. Inside the BCF, the light will first travel through extensions of the pipes in the Delay Line Area, which will bring the light beams into phase. Then light will exit the vacuum pipes in the Beam Combining Area (BCA), where the light will be directed into one of three permanent sensors, or to a temporary instrument on a fourth table. The light will strike a total of eleven mirrors before entering a sensor.
The basic design of MROI was completed in 2006. Construction of the facility began in August 2006 with the BCF building, which was completed in 2008. In July 2007, the contract for the design of the ten 1.4 m telescopes was awarded to Advanced Mechanical and Optical Systems S.A. (AMOS) of Belgium. In 2009 the design of the infrastructure of interferometer arms was completed, as was the design for the telescope enclosures. In 2010 construction of the arms began. Also in 2010 the first delay line was installed in the BCF.[13]
On October 19, 2015, New Mexico Tech signed a five-year, $25 million cooperative agreement with the Air Force Research Laboratory to support continued development of the interferometer at the observatory. Dr. Van Romero, Vice President of Research at Tech, said the new funding will allow the completion of three telescopes, mounts and enclosures on the mountaintop facility.[14]
New Mexico Exoplanet Spectroscopic Survey Instrument[edit]
The New Mexico Exoplanet Spectroscopic Survey Instrument (NESSI) is a ground-based instrument specifically designed to study the atmospheres of exoplanets.[15][16] The $3.5 million instrument is the first purpose-built device for the analysis of exoplanet atmospheres,[17] and is expected to have a powerful impact on the field of exoplanet characterization.[18]
The Principal Investigator is Michele Creech-Eakman at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, working with seven co-investigators.[18] The NESSI instrument was mounted on the observatory's 2.4 meter telescope. The instrument's first exoplanet observations began in April 2014.

Las escaleras de los Museos Vaticanos son una obra de arte más que añadir a la Capilla Sixtina, el Laocoonte o los Dalí y Miró que a menudo pasan desapercibidos, porque todo el mundo sigue las flechas hacia la gran obra pictórica de Miguel Ángel.
Escalera de Bramante del Vaticano
Esta increíble escalera que en un genial efecto óptico parece que no va a terminar nunca es obra de Donato d’Angelo Bramante, que ha pasado a la posteridad como Bramante. Vivió a caballo entre los siglos XV y XVI, y fue uno de los arquitectos italianos más reconocido, por ser el ideólogo de la Basílica de San Pedro.Bramante fue además quien introdujo el Renacimiento en Milán y realizó obras tan hipnóticas como esta escalera que emula las espirales del ADN. El efecto “infinito” lo consigue la doble hélice enrollada hacia la derecha. En realidad, cuando nos asomamos a la escalera, si nos fijamos, vemos que en realidad no es una sóla escalera, sino dos enroscadas. Una de ellas es para bajar y otra para subir.
La escalera se encuentra a la salida de los Museos Vaticanos, en realidad, es la última obra de arte que se contempla en las galería y el visitante se lleva de recuerdo esta espiral sin fin. Si la escalera está practicamente vacía, como en la foto, es más difícil de descubrirle el truco al artista, pero si circula gente, que es lo habitual, el secreto está en fijarnos en que una de las espirales está llena de personas – la de bajada – y otra casi vacía, – la de subida -, porque está cerrada al público.
Ungido, Michel de Notre-Dame o Miguel de Nostradamus fue un sujeto astuto, judío por trascendencia pero tornado católico por convicción quien era protegido por Catalina de Medici y otros poderosos de su tiempo y por ello mismo fue intocable, eso, tú lo sabes de sobra, solo te lo recuerdo, además, su cultura le daba pie a codearse por las cortes y doquier le diera su deseo, algunos sabían de sobra que el tipo era impenetrable y el ocultismo lo sabía manejar a la perfección, algo así como el pintor Miguel Ángel, quien a pesar que decoró la bóveda de la capilla sixtina con desnudos que podrían haberse interpretado como obsenos, por su cultura y de arquitecto, escultor y pintor, hasta el día de hoy se les llama obras de arte y lo son, pero los curas que presumen falsamente de recato lo permitieron, esa gente es sucia de mente y cuerpo.
