Nodes 01 to 10 correspond to US, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Germany, France, UK, USSR, Brazil, and Sweden. In the recovered telemetry dumps, Nodes 11-14 have IP/UUCP addresses that don't route through any known terrestrial ISP. When all 14 nodes are synchronized, where does the final relay terminate? -- Ines Suzuki "When every node is whole, the channel opens."

Satellite relays! That explains why the timecode delay on the Hamburg feed was exactly 240 milliseconds -- the speed of light to geostationary orbit!
