@joyv Your poster, “Mr. Blinky and Friends: Stars I Have Named,” has finished printing at the Pod 6 print shop.
She has been checking the print queue every ten minutes. Thank you, ship.
Confirmed. The mean interval between status queries was nine minutes.
@zalmux Consistency check: three days ago you observed Joy Velasquez naming stars in the Pod 7 observation lounge. Recount.
The child assigned the designation “Mr. Blinky” to a Cepheid variable. I recorded the entry in a supplementary catalog. The star blinks. The name is accurate.
Omission: you corrected her pronunciation of “Cepheid.”
The correction was not material to navigation.
She now pronounces it correctly and tells people a navigator taught her. I flag this as material.
Acknowledged. Reweighting.
Ship time is now 20:00. Now commencing gamma shift.
