As the webcast comes to a close, I too will be signing off.

Have a good afternoon, and I'll see you during the launch of Iridium-NEXT F2.

Congratulations Bulgariasat & SpaceX on a smooth deployment!

And congratulations SpaceX on that extreme, edge-case landing. I'm sure it's a data goldmine for some engineers
