tracker7A few years ago, China put up a satellite called Tiangong 1. It was built as an orbiting lab and test platform for rendezvous and docking as a step towards an eventual long-duration space station. After one unmanned and two manned missions, the platform was shut down in 2016, and it was eventually revealed that China's space agency had lost contact with - and control of - the platform. Now, as in within days or hours, Tiangong is coming down. NORAD's predicting reentry in about four hours, but that estimate has changed constantly thoughout the day. As high-profile reentries are measured, this one is small - less than a tenth the mass of a Space Shuttle - but its getting plenty of talk.
Conglomeration ran this weekend. It was an okay enough con, for the time I spent there, I guess. Admittedly, that wasn't a heck a lot of time - seven hours on Friday afternoon/evening and five or six hours yesterday. In 2016, I ran a couple of Hunter: the Vigil games there, and last year, taught X-Wing and Elder Sign and Pandemic. Minimal action outside the gaming track for me, though, and that's ... it's disappointing.
