With Theo fully cold again, we’re back to attempting to characterize detectors. We ran lots of tests this weekend and primarily learned that Theo is really good at sensing when radio transmitters operate in the highbay. Sadly, in learning this, we didn’t learn much else.
Also, animals (mainly Laika).
