Description

The target was available in small chunks of time over the horizon thus many separate sessions to gather sufficient material.  On top of that it had to share time with other panels of the Summer Mosaic I was working on at the time.  So the integration time wasn't as generous but with modern tools at our disposal it's quite sufficient anyway.
