@ashleevance Uh... Los Alamos.

@CJHandmer The national labs never make filming very fun but I'll try

@ashleevance Ask Adam Hammer at road runner studios

@nomadicnerd they're not going to let us film, are they . . . .

@ashleevance @CJHandmer I had to buy old cameras with no WiFi or Bluetooth for some planned shoots at LLNL which are very much in the same business as LANL

@ashleevance The Z machine! https://www.sandia.gov/z-machine/

@ashleevance

@ashleevance Los Alamos and Sandia labs. Top science in the world

@ashleevance @CJHandmer Contact @LosAlamosNatLab Feynman Center for Innovation. They work with innovative startups and might have some suggestions.

@ashleevance Really, everyone missed it? It’s Sandia Labs

@ashleevance That one big circle that appeared sometime around the middle of 1945

@ashleevance I read this as a statement. As in “golang is the coolest tech in NM”. Too much tech twitter.

@ashleevance @CJHandmer Intel just expanded its foundry business.

@ashleevance SolAero (RocketLab), Elevate Quantum, Roadrunner Venture Studio would all probably show you around.
Also don't miss the Bill Gates / Paul Allen Microsoft plaque located at the Southwest corner of Linn Avenue NE and California Street NE, Albuquerque, NM.
