me
in every hour
thank you
good morning discovery it's today to go
grab yourself a telescope
hey good morning chris i guess it is
about that time
great wake up music
houston discovery uh we have a tally of
hubble
capydoc it must be a beautiful sight
yep it's big and bright
happy
yes we do it looks very good
it reminds us of your patch
you're reading our minds
houston discovery we have the
arrays in the end effector camera now
copy socks
switching views now to the color end
effector camera this looking directly at
the bottom of the telescope as it comes
into view
dr stevie's
going against telescope
and we see that doc
go ahead discovery
yeah i wish you could see the expression
on dr stevie's face
looks like he just shook hands with an
old friend
and we watched it from down here socks
it was certainly
an absolute thrill for us to see it on
television and
congratulations to all of you for an
outstanding rendezvous and a great
capture we're looking forward to uh
getting out there and starting to work
on that telescope
yeah
we went a little slow there at the end
we just wanted to make the rendezvous
last longer it was so much fun
as
discovery and the hubble space telescope
move off the east coast of florida the
spacecraft are now moving into
an orbital sunrise
and the hubble space telescope is now
firmly in the berthing latches
the sequence will be to close the
latches one at a time
okay houston discovery
go ahead discovery
okay we've got uh lats and made up
complete uh we're gonna grapple and as
soon as we do that we're gonna go to
attitude
okay copy mark we're watching
discovery uh
we've ungrappled and we think we're
ready to go to the battery charge
attitude with a
auto fern
and discovery for socks so we concur
we're ready for the maneuver
okay go to that bay
every orbit one team is leaving and
orbit two is here
brian and kay will be talking to you
to say that it's been an exciting day
for us down here would be an
understatement
uh but we're looking forward to even
more exciting days uh
as we begin the evas tomorrow so we'll
be back with you tomorrow for mark and
steve's cva
all right everyone thanks a lot for
looking over our shoulder during the
rendezvous we appreciate all the effort
that went into developing the procedures
and and getting everybody trained up for
this
and it was a lot of fun to do
thanks doc
discovery houston we were able to pick
up some ku here now that we're back on
the west satellite
and we're with you taking a look
okay we're just wrapping up
rms minus v3 survey
i guess a quick verbal assessment here
and the telescope and the arrays look
like they're in pretty darn good shape
sox may want to talk to you later about
the comparison between 61 and now but
for the uneducated observer like me it
looks really in fine shape
we copy that sounds great
do you still have tv
we do for about 15 more seconds and we
are looking at that little apparent
thing
okay that thing is a penetration
we verify there is a hole all the way
through
and we have some other footage we can
send you later that
will
better illustrate that
discovery is flying in an orientation to
enable hubble's batteries to be
recharged at the moment discovery uh we
think we're ready for
d11 auto
we copy and concur
got a good picture
you guys would probably rather look at
hsp though we'll give you that
sure
you
