[Oracles-er2-investigators] [Oracles-p3-investigators] inquiry re. using transit flight as a science flight on sept. 29

[James Podolske (ARC-SGG)]

Hi Paquita et. al. -

COMA could support the WVB to ASI transit as a science flight, as I plan 
to take data on all transit flights back to WAL.

Best Wishes,

Jim
