Saw an old friend yesterday. I got to fly on SOFIA for the Arrokoth occultation in 2017. I calculated the ground track we used, and extracted the occultation light curve from very noisy data.

Now at the Pima Air & Space Museum, Tucson, Arizona, USA.

@simonbp Sad they retired it. NASA invited me on it once but I wasn't able to go...alas, would've been very cool.
