Flight system · P/N PRG-001

Your father is not lonely. He is between launch windows.

Perigee runs each retiree as a crewed mission. Flight plan, live telemetry, a certified flight director, and a berth aboard a companionship habitat at 420 km for the ones cleared to stay up there.

Everything a retiree needs, expressed in the wrong units.

Three flight systems, none of which addresses the actual problem, each certified anyway.

SYS-01 · Guidance

Contact Window Optimization

Our guidance computer models when your daughter is statistically most likely to answer and opens a 90-second window. Burn it or hold for the next one, currently 47 days out.

SYS-02 · Flight rules

Mandatory GO / NO-GO Poll

Before any call home, your assigned flight director reads a 22-item pre-call checklist and polls the room. A single NO-GO and the call is scrubbed. This is a safety feature.

SYS-03 · Habitat

Sundowner Station

Retirees cleared for Trans-Colony Injection relocate to a pressurized module at 420 km with 39 age-matched crewmates and no scheduled de-orbit. Loneliness, solved by relocation.

Crew logs

Flight-tested on retirees who had nowhere else to be.

“My flight director scrubbed three of my calls to my son. He says the telemetry on the fourth one looks strong.”

“I have not been this close to other people since basic. We are 420 kilometers up and I cannot get away from a single one of them.”
