In the recovered telemetry dumps, Nodes 11-14 have IP/UUCP addresses that don't route through any known terrestrial ISP. One routing path lists: 'cascade!transat!orbit-01!stardust'. Orbit-01? Are four of the relay nodes located on satellites? When all 14 nodes are synchronized, where does the final relay terminate? -- Lisa Silva *PLONK* filter active for trolls.
