...glad to see there is a sequel. After the usage of Iridium technology in action during this national crisis - I know that the company which now owns the technology will keep it viable - and perhaps even profitable. (THough that ma be asking too much.)
Best wishes,

PS. As for the Mir image - The CNN space news folks are not a real savvy group - the internet reporter who cut-n-pasted the satellite image probably figured not one in a million folks would pick up the error and so who cares? His/her superiors probably didn't catch it either. That sort of laziness you catch - makes you wonder what liberties are being taken with other aspects of the news or how it's presented.
