I'm almost fifty one years old and I'm now convinced that we will not see
another HEO in orbit in my lifetime...if ever.  The economic environment to
do it just doesn't exist anymore. AMSAT has as much as told everyone that by
abandoning their efforts and  concentrating on LEO cubesats.  No one is
going to come out and say that we absolutely will never have one, they like
to keep that glimmer of hope alive but the 
writing is on the wall.   No one wants to be wrong more than I do but 
I'd bet you P3-E never flies.

Michael, W4HIJ
