Session 1 - Liftoff

"No problems here" Gavin responds to Tanner's check-in questions.

Now that they're out of atmosphere and heading for mission objective, Gavin sets the communications array to receive signals from the objects and the Blackthorne to pass them through to ground control. Once he gets the green light on response from Ground Control, he positions his headset microphone and says "Communications is green" over the crew radio.

"Sure did!" Phil replies to the question of the motion sickness meds. If only he had remembered to take them an hour before, like they told him to, instead of 10 minutes before launch. He decides to stay seated for a bit till the dizziness passes.

"I'm gonna hang out here and look out the window for a bit if that's alright." He lets everyone know. "I'll go check the gear in a bit."

Oh for sure. If you're not used to leaving orbit, try and take it easy. It takes a while to get used to. Gavin said to Phil, trying to help him feel a bit better. Gavin could remember his first few forays out of the atmosphere and he felt just as sick back then as he guessed Phil was feeling now. If you start feeling really sick, try half closing your eyes and just staring at something stationary for a while. That helps sometimes. And grab yourself a giblet bag now, just in case the worst happens.
