Pretty cool

I will be hooking up with them. I have a starlink system on the way. Elon Musk did us a solid. I want to support him when I can.

Thanks!

Thanks for the tip, Nessie! Looks like Friday night!

I can remember watching for Sputnick with my Grampa when I was a kid.

In the spring after they had launched Sputnik the fall before, the neighbors had a old cat that came into a out building which had a big spring that would break over and the door would stay open, usually. One day we was going fishing and went in there too get some fishing equip and the old cat was sneaking in there and the wind blew the door shut and with the wind and strong spring it cut the old cats tail off, they named him Sputnik.

First time I saw them it as at 4 am when I walked out the door to go to work, all in a perfectly straight line and hauling butt across the sky. For a second I thought we were being invaded lol
