Very dark
Hello friends. I know it's been a long time since I updated, but I've been asleep. Just woke up a few days ago, and found that the ground controllers had closed my baffle doors, which means I can't see anything.
The good news is that I'm able to point again! Of course I'm having to use my gyros and magnetic sensors to find my way around, since I can't see with the doors closed, but it's something I can do pretty well.
I'm afraid my dear GOES-10 was pretty upset when I contacted her after I woke up. I didn't know when the guys on the ground put me to sleep, so she had no warning. She was, it would seem, pretty frantic. My particular thanks to GOES-9 and GOES-12 for helping her through the weeks while I was silent.
Anyhow, it looks like I'm going to be going back to work soon. Wish me luck!
