There are some pretty stars in sight .
And also I have uh , the little white
objects that seem to come from the
capsule itself . And drift off
And if they are a yaw check , it's
fantastic . I suspect that the star I
see is Arcturus
It'll be they're very interesting . It
is neither It is one of
the white objects .
two stars are staying quite still . The

getting a last look at the horizon ,
yet I'm not down on it .
