Whitestar payload recovery (anyone want to go for a ride tomorow)

[Jonathan Clark]

Hey everyone,

I just got a message from James (our last minute atc/network/com guy, who did an incredible job byt the way).  James has offered to make the trip to attempt to recover the speedball-1 payload.  He is trying to find at least one other person who is willing to ride along with him just in case the payload is stuck in a tree, or in a hard to get location or for any other reason.  He's planning on leaving early tomorrow morning.  If anyone's is interested just respond here and I'll pass the message along.  THANKS!

[Jeff Johnson]

Not that I can go, since I'm in New England area, but it where is it?  James may have said in his email but I deleted it before I read the whole thing.  Someone that is going to go may want to know how far they need to travel.

Thanks.

Jeff

that would make it a 3.5 hr ride. I'm familiar with the area but am working so that would leave me out. Too bad would love to go up there.

Looks like traffic caused the pick-up attempt to be aborted.

Blenster,
Will you inform the email list that we have aborted Speedball1 recovery attempt after 3 hour wait to cross into Cincy. Final follow up attempt tomorrow morning.
