Nodes 01 to 10 correspond to US, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Germany, France, UK, USSR, Brazil, and Sweden. One routing path lists: 'cascade!transat!orbit-01!stardust'. Orbit-01? Are four of the relay nodes located on satellites? If Nodes 11-14 are in orbit, who is maintaining the transmitters now that Orion is bankrupt? -- Sun-mi Ramírez Tape trading list upon request.
