Good job with the camera as you were going in! Being under that much pressure, it would have been very easy to screw it up. Is everything there still cold for you, or have you managed to get somewhat used to the climate by now?

Thanks KoRn. I didn’t realize the other time through that it was a new one to me. :’)

An ‘extra, extra’ ping to APoD members, and to all a good night.
