New Morning, Dawning. New Year. New… Day!

And the next gen space ‘scope deployment continues… flawlessly.

Here’s the latest (below) — we too will enforce the law of gravity, on the couch, today, on the first.

…Work on the deployment of [the next gen ‘scope’s] sunshield mid-booms went late into the night yesterday. [The next gen ‘scope’s] mission management decided this morning to pause deployment activities for today and allow the team to rest and prepare to begin [the next gen ‘scope’s] sunshield tensioning tomorrow, Sunday, Jan. 2. That deployment is still expected to take place over at least two days.

This will likely affect the full timeline for [the next gen ‘scope’s] deployment. The timeline will be updated as major deployments resume….

We are smiling ear to ear, seeing now that the snow warnings, and the tornado watches, around the nation have passed without really serious incidents. Onward!
