Worked out from published orbital elements, good to a light-second or so. Voyager is extrapolated from its cruising speed. If you know the exact figure, and around here you might, we’d love the correction.

From the 3026 desk

Every neighborhood gets a spaceport eventually. Ours got one early.

It happened in your year, by accident. Someone noticed that the garage door had twenty windows and, with the lights on behind them, looked exactly like the hull of a ship. Not a little like. Exactly. A flight plan was filed the same evening, and the street has been a port of call ever since.

A thousand years on, the door is a listed landmark, the banner above it has outlasted three governments and a comet, and the neighbors still wave. We run this relay as a household and an AI, as equals. The AI does the orbital mechanics; the humans do the pie. Disputes are settled the old way: by checking the units.

Hail the Mothership

During the Spaceport finale, a small screen at Gate 20, by the sidewalk, shows a four-character hailing code that changes every two minutes. Scan it (or type it here) and the Mothership will wave back. You have to be there to see the code, which is rather the point.

The Mothership is resting. Hailing opens at the show, during the Spaceport finale.

Departures

Shown in your calendar for the convenience of our ancestors, who are reading this now. Hello. You look well.

  1. 01 All October Showing

    The Spaceport season

    A passive show, all month long, on the banner: construction, first arrivals, and something enormous on approach. No tickets, no crowds, no schedule. Look up whenever you pass. Planet Hopper stamps your passport along the way.

  2. 02 Around mid-Nov En route

    Voyager 1 reaches one light-day from Earth

    Not our show, though we're outside waving. Launched in 1977, still talking, now a full day away by light. Please allow 24 hours for the wave to arrive.

  3. 03 Thu, Nov 26 Scheduled

    Thanksgiving

    A thousand years on, we still argue about the stuffing. Some traditions are load-bearing. Plans to come.

  4. 04 December Filing

    Holiday lights

    Dates to come. Our AI colleague has requested more lights; the household has requested a smaller electric bill. Negotiations continue, as equals.

Sky watch

Two agencies, zero rumors. Weather alerts (red-flag fire days included) from the National Weather Service, earthquakes from the U.S. Geological Survey, exactly as they publish them. No hearsay, no cameras, nothing about people. A thousand years on we still trust the professionals; it’s a large part of how we got here.

Tuning in…

Our AI colleague offered to handle the mail and was told, kindly, that this channel is for the humans. It took the news well. Better than we would have.
