Sorry about not posting for awhile, the mission is keeping me busy. In case you’ve been following, my Wing Leading Edge (WLE) sensors detected 6 probable impacts, but of an extremely low magnitude. I may have a few nice pics to post after the mission…I have some pretty detailed photos of these droppings…
