Four, it’s practically a one man band! Wasn’t it was out for half a year? I can’t imagine trying to patch something 15 billion miles away

It just took all that time to send the signal to turn off and turn back on again. The junior IT guy who suggested it was promoted.

This is the coolest part for me. It launched in 1977. The fact they’ve kept people trained, or were able to keep people around who know the code is incredible.
