Thank you for your questions about DigitalGlobe's satellites! We will answer them soon. I enjoyed watching the launch today knowing that you were all watching it too. My connection with the satellites is a reporting and metrics function to our biggest customer. While I'm not directly involved with the design of the satellites or with flying them, I'm very involved with their performance and how to best communicate information about the amazing things they do.
Thanks for joining us in this exciting milestone! Please keep checking our website for current information.
