On: Recovering Iran’s NOUR 01 ‘Military Satellite’

Super cool write-up!

The terminology in this hobby confused me a little bit, because it wasn't what I expected. From the context it seems that "recovery" means locating, identifying, and capturing data from the satellite.

Annoyingly, the actual legitimate terminogy for this is "acquiring" (ie as a target or signal) which is just as confusing from a colloquial perspective.

Same here, at the beginning I thought that "recovery" would mean to "we have obtained physical access to the satellite".
