Oh, yeah.

This is great.

Tomorrow night.

Oh, I did.

Yeah, I knew I knew before we ever docked because of we lost five thrusters, five of our we have eight aft firing thrusters.

And during the course of the evolution, we lost five of them.

And knowing how difficult it is to understand the problem, completely bound the problem to where you feel comfortable enough to get back in before we ever docked.

So there's a couple of things I thought.

First off, we have to dock because I'm on the controls.

It is not easy to maintain control.

It's very challenging.

I'm using every bit of experience.

And in the book, Stuck in Space, I mean, I do tell how the Lord used experience to bring me

This experience prepares you for the next, just like in the life of Joseph, right?

And it details in the book here about that and leading up to that.

So I'm on the controls, very difficult to control.

We have to dock.

If we don't dock, I don't think we can, at least in the condition we are, not knowing why we're losing the thrusters.

I don't see how I can maneuver the spacecraft to get to a point where we can do a deorbit burn and return to Earth.

So that's why we have to dock in the moment, right?
