IRID satellites re-enter the earth's atmosphere in a few years.
IRID is no cash cow, IRID is a white elephant, that needs more cash
to operate than revenues it can produce. Best to abandon the whole
thing and let them birds burn up on re-entry over the next several years.

ps does IRID website list the days to watch them birds burn up on re-entry
I hear it is a nice way to star gaze.

sure is a nice day

<<I envision some well informed fat cat out there buying a majority interest in the bonds then seizing control and then finding new uses for IRID's birds and then having a cash cow.>>
