    Hi

    You guys are amazing. It brought lots of smiles to see our ‘little man’ again! He’s called “Joe” after Joe Kittinger who’s a bit of a hero of ours. We had to skip the film in the end although it was a good idea and we want to next time. Instead he has some thin solder wrapped around his arms as our younger students wanted to see if it there is an effect on the soft metal.

    Thanks for your hard work and amazing mission logs!
