Gomx-1 over the Middle East
So in almost 3 years i.e. 919 days we saw 941 boots, almost a boot a day … and those boots weren’t made for walking ;-)
CAS-4A over middle east
Still all the same after a year, beaming packets left right and center, over a year >80 OBC resets. Maybe also a bit more uplink activity seen in RX AGC

AO-73 continues to maintain a very stable attitude and is spinning about the Z-Z axis with minimal Nutation.
On May 7th at 1650utc AO-73 will again experience eclipse periods with an eclipse of 12 seconds.
By May 14th they will have increased to 12 minutes per orbit.
