I do not know if it successfully deployed, or if the reflector is stuck in the cubesat, or if it exploded into a million mylar pieces which might still be visible. _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-lReceived on Fri Jul 14 2017 - 14:28:13 UTC
