Alex Mersereau is a member of Spacesim who joined in 2010-11.
His accomplishments thus far are relatively few and far between, with the most recent being the discovery of the rogue planet Mersereau 2012 A.
Mission Participation
In his first year, Alex was a dedicated member of Mission Control for Mission Dragan 2011. Due to a tendency to mumble and a great will to speak, he was most frequently found writing logs of events, rather than confusing people through CAPCOM. Unfortunately, his participation was limited, as he was in Grade 9 at the time, and could not afford to stay overnight or miss classes.
In his second year, Alex participated as a less-dedicated Simulator on Mission Red Sun 2012. Although he attended his Simulator shifts, he was also involuntarily signed up for mission control shifts by Education Subcommander Zola Magwood, all of which were unfortunately placed at times during school hours. Due to a long-standing perfect attendance record, Alex was forced to miss every mission control shift he had been signed up for. This has given some members of spacesim a misguided impression of low-commitment on his part.
For the third mission, Alex took on the role of the Engineer aboard the Habitat as an Astronaut. Serving his team well, Alex held one of that Mission's high scores for number of EVAs participated on. He also probably generated the most sweat in that time. When the Habitat was contaminated (biologically speaking), he volunteered to stay behind and control EECOM to decontaminate the crew in a safe and controlled manner. Alex's other contributions to the mission included his engineering skills, his ability to not eat a whole lot, and his constant streams of absolutely flawless jokes.
Reign as Education Commander
Being that, at the time of writing, it is only two weeks into the 2013-2014 year, there's not much to write here. It's going to be a good year though.
