   - A proof of concept, measure Moon bounce capabilities
   - The actual observation for scientific analysis (whatever that will be)
+===== Preliminary Observation =====
+I propose we engage the Ham operators from the 2017 Moon bounce to transmit again. But this time we calculate
+  * The power we should be receiving with each dish individually
+  * The power we actually received  with each dish individually
+  * The power we should be receiving with the beamformer
+  * The power we actually received  with the beamformer
+  * Characterize system power loss
+  * Determine if the ATA has enough collecting area and oomph to allow us to perform a decent observation of the real quantum experiment and get a credible paper out of it.
+(more detail TBD)
+===== Main Observation =====
+  * Only if the preliminary observation is a success should we proceed with the second experiment.
+  * What would tat exactly be?
+  * What data processing is required?
+(more detail TBD)
