In the Observe step, one gathers information about the situation around them. In Boyd’s original context of fighter aircraft operations, we can imagine a pilot looking out the canopy, checking instruments, listening to radio communications, etc.
Gotcha. I’d assumed “observe” was more like “hear a crashing noise from the kitchen”—a kinda-automatic process that triggers the person to re-take-things-in and re-orient. Is that wrong?

I think the steps always go in order, but also there are many OODA loops running simultaneously
