[amsat-bb] AO-95

[Andrew Glasbrenner]

Fred,

Perhaps because there is little useful to be done or said at this point. We don’t know, and may never know for sure what the exact failure is. Many of those involved are also in some state of grieving right now after the years of effort put into this little satellite. Space is hard, and we do the best we can.

Rest assured that we will continue to monitor the satellite for any changes, and when the will to work the problem is a little stronger we will seek out some mega-erp EME stations to try to wiggle the RSSI to further diagnose the problem. Continued submission of telemetry is very important to this end.
