I hear that it is routine practice to directly program in Assembly on this large aerospace missions because you can't trust the compiler. So I have two questions,

How much of your coding is done in Assembly? How much time do you save by just directly hardwiring all of your bits?

You guys seem to have a great team dynamic. Are there any fond memories that you have with one another that you would like to share?

Can you tell me a little bit about the science instruments that are being used on the mission? What's your favorite one and why?

Serious questions:

1.) How soon after launch will you start collecting science?

2.) What is the end of life plan?

3.) Can you tell me the difference between SpaceWire and SpaceFibre and why you're using one over the other?
