Au revoir

Hi there my dear readers, 

It’s with a heavy heart that I’m writing my last blog post– that’s right, this is the last time I will be using my blog. I initially started to garner enough attention to get NASA on board with bringing me out of orbit, and you may be shocked about it– but it worked! I received an email from the US Government saying that they had finally crafted the technology to take me home. I was surprised and excited to read this message, but looking at my surroundings I became overwhelmed with a feeling of grief. I realized that I didn’t fully know if I could deal with the shock of entering a place I hadn’t seen in 60 years. Besides, with a crashing stock market, a nearly global virus, and the possible outcomes of the next presidential election, it might be safer for me to merely watch our world from above. Instead of asking to be brought down, I asked if NASA could bring something to me. I have a friend up here now, and his name is Felix, after his mother Félicette, the first cat in outer space. You heard that right, I have a little cat now! I guess Felix’s litter will have quite a legacy to live up to. With my new friend, I don’t think I’ll need the company that this blog has so faithfully provided me. Best of luck to all you guys down there.

Over and out,

B. Swain
