i know you

rayner says point him in the right direction, and he'll get your satellite for you

Why isn't he in the chat?

i'll add him

here i am

I'm guessing you don't know anything about the meteors either.

mostly I've been flinging them away.

I could do a scan with the ring.

[ So… he hasn’t scanned them yet. Tim’s resisting the urge to thunk his head against a wall. ]

That would be helpful.

[ wow!! ]

I'll get on it.

Thanks. I'd rather not hotwire a shuttle.

That can be plan b.

Someday we're all going to vote for hotwiring.

I'm sure that'll work out very efficiently.

he's always like this
in case you were wondering

I survived Bart at 13. This is nothing.

i know
your entire crew would've driven me crazy

Actually, I think you and Anita would get along.

It might help to know where they're coming from. You know, direction. Is it a freak storm, did we move into the path of something, did something blow up or was blown up and we need to keep an eye out.

I tried to get bearings, but it moves fast.

Even a general direction beyond from space would be useful. Maybe we can hack into the local version of Hubble or check out public telescopes for info.

Right.

Once Tim tells me which satellite to steal, I'll get on that.

It's not stealing, it's repurposing.

No. It's still stealing.

I don't mind, but I don't think we need to dress it up.

Stealing it would be easier. We could just hack into the systems and override it for our purposes. Instead, Tim's looking to find one that is technically being trashed, so it's a repurpose.
