Oh, no, no, it's a very short lapse of time. We're talking maybe a second when you're up in space orbiting the planet. So I know that they have like on the ISS where they have schools that contact them. They have ham radio operators that go to schools to get special permission. And then the kids get to talk to the astronauts real time. And the packet is the same way. You could send a packet message up there and leave a message. You have to do it fairly quickly because the ISS is traveling fairly fast. So you only have maybe a minute to get it all done. Same thing with the New York Space Station. But you can get it done and it's pretty almost real time. So close. Yeah, I like hearing the kids at some of the schools and some of the goofy stuff they ask. It's kind of cute. Always wanted to know, how do you go to the bathroom that well? There's no gravity. So I always want to know that. One of the things I always remember. Then I would hear some of those sessions in a couple of ways. CBC that afternoon would sometimes bring some of those to us. And AR News, when I used to follow that, they would rebroadcast the ISS. When they're interviewed by the different schools across North America with the little kids, little 12-year-olds and their Q&A session.
