The date- and time-stamps of my images and of my illustrations indicate my local time-zone.
The time-stamp is at the same time I rolled into downtown Spokane to my excursion to the Rotary Fountain. As usual, and as my past images illustrate, I stop after passing under Division Street by the river to capture an image of a location I like to record, especially because of the change of seasons.
A couple minutes later was that door.
Don't know the time they were actually streaming across the internet wires on NASA TV. Perhaps about the same time. Don't know.
All I have is the time-stamp the post was made by the International Space Station account on Twitter.
So, as I wrote extensively in the past couple days: I have no resources to prove conspiracy.
What's compelling about this, a topic I first learned about on the local tv news the night of 10/04/2019, is a series of images I captured over an hour later.
I was on my way back home, what would have normally taken me about another 1.5 hours but turned into 4 hours, and I *had* to go out of my way - I literally turned around and went back - to capture those images.
I had heard about it already a few weeks earlier on the local tv news and I hope they approve the plan. Won't improve much that stretch of the Centennial Trail for a bicyclist but still, it should be a neat area to ride through. Which just reminded me that I forgot to include a video on my last post.
As an addendum to my earlier posts, I am reminded again of how I was compelled to go out of my way to capture that image. I hadn't heard the news from the Space Station and the NASA astro's until many hours later, after I returned exhausted and drenched - which would have been avoided normally on a 1.5 hour return trip - to my desk to check up on the usual suspects on the internet.

Captain KIRK: How did Riley get in there?
SCOTT: He ran in, said you wanted us on the Bridge.
KIRK: He's cut off both helm and power.
SCOTT: And he shut the door behind us and locked off the mechanism.
KIRK: Can't you get to the auxiliary?
SCOTT: I can't. He's hooked everything through the main panel in there. Get up to my office and pull the plans for this bulkhead. The only way to get that door open is to cut through these wall circuits here.

Dr. MCCOY: McCoy to Bio. We've isolated it. Start preparing serum.
HARRISON: What, Doctor?
MCCOY: It's water. Somehow on this planet, water's changed to a complex chain of molecules.
HARRISON: What's that, Doctor?
MCCOY: That's how we missed it. It passed from man to man through perspiration. Once in the bloodstream, it acts like alcohol, depresses the centres of judgment, self-control.

3 Astronauts Grab Marooned Satellite in a Dramatic Rescue : Space: The manual capture is biggest step in an hours-long procedure to retrieve the craft. The crew is to bring it into the shuttle's cargo bay to attach a booster rocket.
May 14, 1992 ROBERT W. STEWART TIMES STAFF WRITER
Flight controllers at the Washington headquarters of the International Telecommunications Satellite Organization, the 122-nation consortium that owns and operates the $150-million satellite, later were able to stabilize it.
"The training was fine. My sense is that the tool did not work as designed, which would not be the first time," said former astronaut Joseph P. Allen, who was involved in a 1984 spacewalk and satellite rescue in which a tool intended to stabilize the errant PALAPA B-2 satellite did not work.
The Intelsat rescue marked the first time that astronauts used nothing but their hands to capture an orbiting satellite

Rocket Blasts Satellite Toward a Proper Orbit : Space: The reboost is flawlessly accomplished. Two astronauts perform mission's last planned spacewalk.
May 15, 1992 ROBERT W. STEWART TIMES STAFF WRITER
HOUSTON — The stranded communications satellite rescued by three shuttle astronauts blasted toward its proper orbit Thursday, ending a dramatic effort that in the words of NASA's top official "brought the magic back to our space program."
The 23,000-pound rocket motor clamped to the marooned Intelsat 6 by the crew of space shuttle Endeavour fired flawlessly at 10:25 a.m. PDT while both were orbiting about 230 miles over Africa, said a spokesman for the International Telecommunications Satellite Organization. The 122-nation consortium, based in Washington, owns and operates the $150-million satellite.
The reboost capped a dramatic, four-day rescue effort in which astronauts were forced to discard a specially designed, $7-million tool that failed to snag the errant satellite, and instead literally reached up and grabbed the Intelsat with their gloved hands.
Wednesday's 8-hour, 29-minute spacewalk, which includes the time astronauts spent in the shuttle airlock, was the longest in the history of the American space program.
"It was a wonderful feat," said Daniel S. Goldin, the new administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The successful rescue, Goldin argued, is an endorsement of the nation's manned space program, which has come under attack by some in Congress because of its expense. The planned space station Freedom, for example, is expected to cost between $30 billion and $40 billion through the end of the decade.
In the last planned spacewalk of the mission Thursday, Air Force Lt. Col. Thomas D. Akers, 40, and physicist Kathryn C. Thornton, 39--only the second American woman to walk in space--ventured out of the shuttle at 2:07 p.m. PDT to practice techniques that will be used in building the space station.
Their task was to assemble a package of struts, some of which were used in Wednesday's satellite rescue, into a pyramid-like structure secured in the shuttle's open cargo bay. The structure then was lifted high over the bay by the shuttle's 50-foot robot arm.
After snagging Intelsat 6 Wednesday and attaching the new booster rocket, the shuttle crew released the satellite, which was allowed to drift away. The two were more than 400 miles apart by the time Intelsat 6's rocket motor was fired Thursday. After the fiery reboost, which was visible from the shuttle, the motor separated from the satellite at 11:51 a.m. PDT, and Intelsat 6 streaked into a temporary elliptical orbit that will take it as far as 45,000 nautical miles from the Earth. By next Wednesday, the satellite is expected to settle into its stationary, geosynchronous orbit 22,300 nautical miles over the Atlantic Ocean.
When it begins operating in mid-July, the satellite will be able to simultaneously transmit 120,000 telephone calls and three television feeds. It is expected to earn more than $750 million for Intelsat over its 10-year life.
Goldin offered lavish praise for the Intelsat rescue.
"What we have done," Goldin said, "is demonstrate that humans can and should operate in space." He spoke of "brilliance of the human mind, that's able to adapt and react and do the things that machines just can't do."
"In front of the eyes of the world, they performed the impossible. . . . Yesterday brought the magic back to our space program."
At Intelsat headquarters, consortium Vice President Pierre Madon said: "Clearly, this is a magnificent day for both Intelsat and NASA. . . . I offer my hearty congratulations to the crew of Endeavour and NASA for a job well done."
Even as Goldin was congratulating the seven Endeavour astronauts and flight controllers at the Johnson Space Center for the rescue, NASA engineers were searching for lessons in the trouble-plagued mission, which is to end Saturday with a scheduled 1:57 p.m. PDT landing at Edwards Air Force Base in California.
"One of the preliminary factors we're learning about is how to do better simulations on the ground," Goldin said Thursday.
