Jose Hernandez who at that point 183 00:13:03,429 --> 00:12:43,939 will be back onto the a flight deck of 184 00:13:16,659 --> 00:13:03,439 discovery new home for the first time 185 00:13:20,079 --> 00:13:16,669 looking to stabilize binoculars for 186 00:13:25,089 --> 00:13:20,089 several months it's a wonderful view the 187 00:13:30,009 --> 00:13:25,099 space station get closer beautiful like 188 00:13:34,929 --> 00:13:30,019 golden shiny and modules and irradiated 189 00:13:37,089 --> 00:13:34,939 shining in silver as we swing through 190 00:13:38,919 --> 00:13:37,099 the cockpit on the flight deck you can 191 00:13:41,049 --> 00:13:38,929 see it's a pretty busy place 192 00:13:44,229 --> 00:13:41,059 all six all seven bodies are up here 193 00:13:46,329 --> 00:13:44,239 with Sam pretty tight and very little 194 00:13:48,489 --> 00:13:46,339 real estate but we find a way to make 195 00:13:50,739 --> 00:13:48,499 everything fit everyone has a role and 196 00:13:54,039 --> 00:13:50,749 responsibilities the station starts off 197 00:13:55,809 --> 00:13:54,049 as a backup and off in the distance and 198 00:13:58,419 --> 00:13:55,819 it's a really impressive to see as it 199 00:14:07,269 --> 00:13:58,429 moves closer and closer as we make our 200 00:14:09,279 --> 00:14:07,279 approach to station okay well we went 201 00:14:12,909 --> 00:14:09,289 through the last series of burns coming 202 00:14:15,459 --> 00:14:12,919 up to the manual phase the guidance did 203 00:14:19,029 --> 00:14:15,469 its job and got the orbiter in a very 204 00:14:28,100 --> 00:14:19,039 good situation for the manual Tegeler to 205 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:35,999 good closure that certifier okay 206 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:38,410 absolutely looking for freed ran lights 207

then it was time to 210 00:16:05,790 --> 00:15:03,310 go ahead and you can see the station 211 00:16:14,380 --> 00:16:08,020 is the station of the big will for 212 00:16:16,450 --> 00:16:14,390 robotics go ahead Mike let you know we 213 00:16:20,710 --> 00:16:16,460 are just putting procedure one two one 214 00:16:24,490 --> 00:16:20,720 zero the birthday PLM gruffalo work ok 215 00:16:27,190 --> 00:16:24,500 sounds good Mike the station's robotic 216 00:16:29,380 --> 00:16:27,200 arm the canadarm2 reached over and has 217 00:16:31,570 --> 00:16:29,390 grappled the grapple fixture on the top 218 00:16:40,140 --> 00:16:31,580 of the Leonardo multi-purpose Logistics 219 00:16:45,420 --> 00:16:42,630 they for first full day aboard the space 220 00:16:48,390 --> 00:16:45,430 station and I woke up this morning and 221 00:16:52,110 --> 00:16:48,400 Mike built from the expedition crew join 222 00:18:15,240 --> 00:16:52,120 me for mplm installation took it out of 223 00:18:30,109 --> 00:18:15,250 the payload Bay with the okay then you 224 00:18:34,969 --> 00:18:32,509 view of Danny Olivas at the spent 225 00:18:37,339 --> 00:18:34,979 ammonia tank assembly the spent tank 226 00:18:40,249 --> 00:18:37,349 weighs almost three thirteen hundred 227 00:18:45,439 --> 00:18:40,259 pounds it will be removed and grappled 228 00:18:47,659 --> 00:18:45,449 by the canadarm2 and held in place for 229 00:18:49,639 --> 00:18:47,669 the next day and a half until the new 230 00:18:51,859 --> 00:18:49,649 ammonia tank assembly is installed in 231 00:18:56,409 --> 00:18:51,869 its place during the second spacewalk 232 00:18:59,269 --> 00:18:56,419 Thursday by Olivas and Christa Fugelsang 233 00:19:01,699 --> 00:18:59,279 start moving over to join Danny Olivas 234 00:19:08,749 --> 00:19:01,709 at the worksite for the release of the 235 00:19:12,259 --> 00:19:08,759 ammonia tank assembly the Canada arm to 236 00:19:16,309 --> 00:19:12,269 multi-tasking grappled on to the ammonia 237 00:19:19,909 --> 00:19:16,319 tank assembly and being used to halt 238 00:19:22,759 --> 00:19:19,919 nicole stott and the european technology 239 00:19:30,439 --> 00:19:22,769 experiment facility over to Discovery's 240 00:19:32,149 --> 00:19:30,449 cargo bay where it will be birthed we're 241 00:19:34,579 --> 00:19:32,159 looking at sequential still video now 242 00:19:35,809 --> 00:19:34,589 from inside Discovery's cargo veil you 243 00:19:37,189 --> 00:19:35,819 can see Daniel leave us there on the 244 00:19:38,539 --> 00:19:37,199 left nicole stott there on the right 245 00:19:41,329 --> 00:19:38,549 they are continuing to try to get this 246 00:19:54,529 --> 00:19:41,339 UTF experiment installed at the back end 247 00:19:55,969 --> 00:19:54,539 of the payload Bay sts-128 mission 248 00:19:58,069 --> 00:19:55,979 specialist Danny Olivas making good 249 00:19:59,779 --> 00:19:58,079 progress on this missing experiment he 250 00:20:02,629 --> 00:19:59,789 has so far removed what's called pit 251 00:20:04,969 --> 00:20:02,639 pins which are a little small quick 252 00:20:06,319 --> 00:20:04,979 disconnect pins that were holding these 253 00:20:08,899 --> 00:20:06,329 two you see them on the right in the 254 00:20:11,419 --> 00:20:08,909 left almost suitcase like experiments 255 00:20:28,689 --> 00:20:11,429 open and he has put those pins back and 256 00:20:33,060 --> 00:20:31,249 they're getting ready following protocol 257 00:20:35,310 --> 00:20:33,070 and 258 00:20:40,769 --> 00:20:35,320 are in the math after spending the night 259 00:20:43,039 --> 00:20:40,779 there in camp out you can see the the B 260 00:20:45,810 --> 00:20:43,049 hats are being closed there by tim kopra 261 00:20:47,639 --> 00:20:45,820 we now are your dot from the 262 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:47,649 International Space Station and the 263 00:20:55,799 --> 00:20:49,210 pressure will be brought down to ten 264 00:20:58,889 --> 00:20:55,809 point two Danny's got inside the heart 265 00:21:00,480 --> 00:20:58,899 upper torso of their spacesuit and you 266 00:21:01,980 --> 00:21:00,490 can see and the crew lock it's full 267 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:01,990 equipment right now but will empty all 268 00:21:06,269 --> 00:21:04,090 that out and that's where daddy and 269 00:21:08,220 --> 00:21:06,279 Nicole end up going into before we close 270 00:21:10,230 --> 00:21:08,230 the hatch behind them and then we drop 271 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:10,240 that portion of the airlock down to 272 00:22:02,560 --> 00:21:30,970 vacuum before they go outside nothing 273 00:22:07,959 --> 00:22:04,539 how to play 274 00:22:10,749 --> 00:22:07,969 by then for Danny and Nicole today and 275 00:22:13,449 --> 00:22:10,759 basically what we do is set up shop on 276 00:22:15,489 --> 00:22:13,459 the flight deck and using the 277 00:22:17,199 --> 00:22:15,499 combination of the windows and all the 278 00:22:19,690 --> 00:22:17,209 cameras and monitors that we have we 279 00:22:21,789 --> 00:22:19,700 keep track of where they're at they know 280 00:22:23,859 --> 00:22:21,799 that procedures quite well and yet we 281 00:22:26,349 --> 00:22:23,869 still have them in here to remind them 282 00:22:28,829 --> 00:22:26,359 what steps may be coming that's also 283 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:28,839 talking to the ground for any 284 00:22:39,489 --> 00:22:35,570 last-minute changes or updates so Ethan 285 00:22:41,049 --> 00:22:39,499 this was flight day six on the sts-128 286 00:22:43,239 --> 00:22:41,059 mission we got the whole crew up John 287 00:22:44,979 --> 00:22:43,249 the flight deck of discovery that's a 288 00:22:47,799 --> 00:22:44,989 little post leap action here with 289 00:22:50,229 --> 00:22:47,809 exercise on the bike and we've got 290 00:22:54,789 --> 00:22:50,239 everybody getting ready to start the day 291 00:22:56,499 --> 00:22:54,799 out there we had a big day of mplm 292 00:22:58,180 --> 00:22:56,509 transfer so it's good to get the 293 00:23:01,810 --> 00:22:58,190 exercise in early so that we can have 294 00:23:03,729 --> 00:23:01,820 uninterrupted time in the mplm there's a 295 00:23:05,799 --> 00:23:03,739 lot of paperwork which Christa is mostly 296 00:23:07,810 --> 00:23:05,809 been tracking for this mission he's are 297 00:23:09,779 --> 00:23:07,820 a loadmaster for the mplm and I've 298 00:23:13,329 --> 00:23:09,789 turned trying to help him out with that 299 00:23:16,269 --> 00:23:13,339 and now you can see there's a very nice 300 00:23:18,039 --> 00:23:16,279 choreography to get the mplm transferred 301 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:18,049 and here's chris are doing in their rack 302 00:23:43,090 --> 00:24:16,329 I hear 303 00:24:22,339 --> 00:24:19,999 not everything that we transfer over to 304 00:24:23,930 --> 00:24:22,349 the space station came up in the mplm we 305 00:24:25,129 --> 00:24:23,940 do have some things on the mid-deck of 306 00:24:27,979 --> 00:24:25,139 the oil but are one of those is a 307 00:24:30,169 --> 00:24:27,989 freezer that we carry up and when we 308 00:24:31,609 --> 00:24:30,179 launched it was that about four degrees 309 00:24:33,469 --> 00:24:31,619 Celsius and we carried up some 310 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:33,479 experiments that are going to be 311 00:24:38,419 --> 00:24:35,369 transferred over to the Japanese module 312 00:24:42,019 --> 00:24:38,429 is nicole and i we open it up for the 313 00:24:46,519 --> 00:24:42,029 first time and then what we're gonna do 314 00:24:48,469 --> 00:24:46,529 is we're gonna carry those over and 315 00:24:56,079 --> 00:24:48,479 they'll be stowed in another freezer 316 00:25:02,239 --> 00:24:59,599 Christer Fuglesang who is continuing to 317 00:25:04,070 --> 00:25:02,249 pre breathe pure oxygen to cleanse the 318 00:25:05,810 --> 00:25:04,080 nitrogen out of his bloodstream as he 319 00:25:08,570 --> 00:25:05,820 and fellow space Walker Danny Olivas 320 00:25:10,789 --> 00:25:08,580 gear up for the second spacewalk of this 321 00:25:13,369 --> 00:25:10,799 flight a six and a half hour excursion 322 00:25:15,799 --> 00:25:13,379 outside of quest with the singular goal 323 00:25:17,419 --> 00:25:15,809 to install a new ammonia tank assembly 324 00:25:19,759 --> 00:25:17,429 on the Portland truss of the 325 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:19,769 International Space Station you can see 326 00:25:25,909 --> 00:25:23,369 the extended canadarm2 robotic arm 327 00:25:27,709 --> 00:25:25,919 firmly in the grasp of the old ammonia 328 00:25:29,239 --> 00:25:27,719 tank assembly that was removed by Oliva 329 00:25:31,609 --> 00:25:29,249 since taught during the first spacewalk 330 00:25:34,129 --> 00:25:31,619 on Tuesday and then at the rear of 331 00:25:36,289 --> 00:25:34,139 Discovery's cargo bay the boxy object is 332 00:25:38,539 --> 00:25:36,299 the subject of today's work the new 333 00:25:41,539 --> 00:25:38,549 ammonia tank assembly there's a close-up 334 00:25:43,369 --> 00:25:41,549 view on its truss structure its cargo 335 00:25:45,919 --> 00:25:43,379 carrying truss at the rear of the cargo 336 00:25:47,509 --> 00:25:45,929 bay its destination the port one trusts 337 00:25:50,839 --> 00:25:47,519 of the International Space Station later 338 00:25:53,239 --> 00:25:50,849 today Kevin Ford now maneuvering the 339 00:25:55,839 --> 00:25:53,249 canid arm to down to the payload Bay of 340 00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:55,849 discovery to meet Christer Fuglesang 341 00:26:04,040 --> 00:25:57,570 thank you 342 00:26:06,230 --> 00:26:04,050 it's evolved the arm is in firm grasp of 343 00:26:08,270 --> 00:26:06,240 the old ammonia tank assembly and has 344 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:08,280 been for the past two days since it 345 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:09,930 since it was removed during the first 346 00:26:21,290 --> 00:26:17,630 wrister Fugelsang at the end of the 347 00:26:24,260 --> 00:26:21,300 canadarm2 robotic arm as he hauls the 348 00:26:26,090 --> 00:26:24,270 new ammonia tank assembly up to the 349 00:26:33,110 --> 00:26:26,100 worksite on the port one truss of the 350 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:33,120 International Space Station the ammonia 351 00:26:37,970 --> 00:26:35,610 tank assembly is now firmly secured in 352 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:37,980 the port one trusts of the International 353 00:26:45,410 --> 00:26:42,210 Space Station at 7:24 p.m. Central Time 354 00:26:47,990 --> 00:26:45,420 the new tank is in its parking place on 355 00:26:58,190 --> 00:26:48,000 the port side of the International Space 356 00:26:59,900 --> 00:26:58,200 Station's backbone sts-128 mission 357 00:27:01,190 --> 00:26:59,910 specialist Christopher Fugelsang getting 358 00:27:03,050 --> 00:27:01,200 quite the view now as he makes his way 359 00:27:06,140 --> 00:27:03,060 back toward Discovery's payload Bay with 360 00:27:08,570 --> 00:27:06,150 his spent ammonia tank assembly Danny 361 00:27:10,490 --> 00:27:08,580 Olivas meanwhile moving hand-over-hand 362 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:10,500 down the station's structure back toward 363 00:27:32,970 --> 00:27:30,960 this is a shot at Christer Fuglesang 364 00:27:34,770 --> 00:27:32,980 still down inside Discovery's payload 365 00:27:38,970 --> 00:27:34,780 Bay wrapping up the activities on this 366 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:38,980 old ammonia tank assembly while he is 367 00:27:44,190 --> 00:27:41,530 doing that Danny Olivas is up on the s-1 368 00:27:50,460 --> 00:27:44,200 truss working on an ammonia tank 369 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:50,470 assembly up there day seven highlights 370 00:27:54,900 --> 00:27:52,690 for SGS 128 it's been a great mission 371 00:27:56,340 --> 00:27:54,910 we're getting close it inside with them 372 00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:56,350 so that we can help them with all 373 00:28:08,970 --> 00:27:57,850 procedures and get them ready to go 374 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:08,980 outside on ETA to Kevin through Christy 375 00:28:13,860 --> 00:28:11,890 I ran quite a bit on the arm this is 376 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:13,870 where Kevin and I were setting up all of 377 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:15,250 the equipment that we need for 378 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:17,890 supporting the robotic arm operations a 379 00:28:24,660 --> 00:28:21,490 lot of different tools to see what's 380 00:28:31,950 --> 00:28:24,670 going on and make sure that the arm and 381 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:31,960 Krister stay clear of the station and 382 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:34,210 here you see cursor heading down the the 383 00:28:59,700 --> 00:28:37,810 payload Bay still on his way to join the 384 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:02,190 and in zero gravity is that you carry 385 00:29:06,269 --> 00:29:04,450 things with your legs and you get around 386 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:06,279 you move around with your arms quite the 387 00:29:10,049 --> 00:29:07,570 opposite of what you would do on the 388 00:29:12,299 --> 00:29:10,059 ground and Frank is moving some of the 389 00:29:14,039 --> 00:29:12,309 food containers that way and it's a very 390 00:29:18,990 --> 00:29:14,049 efficient way actually to get things 391 00:29:22,490 --> 00:29:19,000 from point to point and here it's more 392 00:29:25,830 --> 00:29:22,500 from the ETA that's me upside down and 393 00:29:29,220 --> 00:29:25,840 there it is towards the end of the eda I 394 00:29:34,470 --> 00:29:29,230 was carrying and fortress foot support 395 00:29:49,250 --> 00:29:34,480 and bar go to on a special kind of tool 396 00:29:56,150 --> 00:29:52,490 getting them ready to get him out of 397 00:29:57,980 --> 00:29:56,160 there Ian you suit and others not the 398 00:30:00,789 --> 00:29:57,990 procedures that we have to follow make 399 00:30:03,770 --> 00:30:00,799 sure that for example that we don't know 400 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:03,780 pressure depressurize the meta yeah and 401 00:30:08,419 --> 00:30:05,730 it starts rate so that we don't hurt 402 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:08,429 their eardrums and and as you can see 403 00:30:28,810 --> 00:30:10,530 it's a very detailed process that they 404 00:30:36,470 --> 00:30:30,590 great job Kevin 405 00:30:39,230 --> 00:30:36,480 hey thanks why it's a great plan today 406 00:30:41,299 --> 00:30:39,240 was a special day for us as we had half 407 00:30:44,060 --> 00:30:41,309 a day off but nonetheless we still had 408 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:44,070 our daily chores we had to do here you 409 00:30:49,190 --> 00:30:47,010 see Danny are doing the law change out 410 00:30:51,919 --> 00:30:49,200 these are the characters that scrub our 411 00:30:54,380 --> 00:30:51,929 co2 and we have to do daily chores like 412 00:30:57,710 --> 00:30:54,390 this and although collect water and 413 00:30:59,990 --> 00:30:57,720 transportation and the other condensate 414 00:31:01,669 --> 00:31:00,000 and there's a lot of chores that even 415 00:31:09,159 --> 00:31:01,679 though we had half the day off we still 416 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:09,169 had to do so we've got Kevin he was 417 00:31:13,490 --> 00:31:11,370 getting ready to have lunch that's 418 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:13,500 peanut butter on a tortilla one of our 419 00:31:19,010 --> 00:31:15,210 favorite things so as he calls it it's 420 00:31:22,039 --> 00:31:19,020 peanut butter popsicle and we do eat 421 00:31:23,930 --> 00:31:22,049 well up

00:31:28,200 orbiters have a conference with our 425 00:31:35,630 --> 00:31:30,570 families over a video networking 426 00:31:38,060 --> 00:31:35,640 this was Jose's day this crystal I get 427 00:31:39,169 --> 00:31:38,070 in his exercise the EDA yesterday and 428 00:31:42,710 --> 00:31:39,179 the one he's got planned for tomorrow 429 00:31:44,299 --> 00:31:42,720 probably wasn't enough for him there's a 430 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:44,309 really busy part so you could see here 431 00:31:50,060 --> 00:31:46,890 this came heading over to the European 432 00:31:53,330 --> 00:31:50,070 facility and Frank heading over to the 433 00:32:20,950 --> 00:31:53,340 gym because making her way over to Saul 434 00:32:30,850 --> 00:32:23,570 gives you an appreciation when you try 435 00:32:35,659 --> 00:32:33,650 everything proceeding on track at this 436 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:35,669 early hour of the crews workday in 437 00:32:39,980 --> 00:32:38,130 support of the third and final spacewalk 438 00:32:42,470 --> 00:32:39,990 of the mission to be conducted by Danny 439 00:32:44,180 --> 00:32:42,480 Olivas and Christer Fuglesang the 440 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:44,190 spacewalk of course is the focus of 441 00:32:48,140 --> 00:32:46,290 attention today for most of the activity 442 00:32:51,409 --> 00:32:48,150 involving the joint shuttle station 443 00:32:53,270 --> 00:32:51,419 crews this will be the 133rd spacewalk 444 00:32:55,100 --> 00:32:53,280 in support of space station assembly and 445 00:33:07,240 --> 00:32:55,110 maintenance the third and final 446 00:33:12,049 --> 00:33:09,590 believe us making his way over to the 447 00:33:16,010 --> 00:33:12,059 starboard 3 truss and the work site for 448 00:33:19,100 --> 00:33:16,020 today's first task the deployment of a 449 00:33:21,650 --> 00:33:19,110 cargo attachment platform what this work 450 00:33:24,289 --> 00:33:21,660 amounts to is that leave us in Fugelsang 451 00:33:27,289 --> 00:33:24,299 are essentially taking apart some of the 452 00:33:29,390 --> 00:33:27,299 structural attachments and braces of the 453 00:33:32,270 --> 00:33:29,400 starboard 3 trust they can gain access 454 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:32,280 to the payload attachment system the 455 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:34,290 cargo attachment platform that they'll 456 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:36,090 be rotating down into a locked position 457 00:33:43,340 --> 00:33:41,010 a short time from now and a good latch 458 00:33:45,530 --> 00:33:43,350 checkout on the newly deployed payload 459 00:33:50,090 --> 00:33:45,540 attachment system cargo platform on the 460 00:33:52,159 --> 00:33:50,100 starboard 3 truss the view of Christer 461 00:33:54,500 --> 00:33:52,169 Fuglesang from Danny Olivas helmet 462 00:33:58,159 --> 00:33:54,510 camera as he completes the check out of 463 00:34:00,350 --> 00:33:58,169 the latches on the newly deployed a 464 00:34:03,350 --> 00:34:00,360 cargo platform to which critical spare 465 00:34:07,919 --> 00:34:03,360 parts will be a fixed on the sts-129 466 00:34:10,859 --> 00:34:07,929 mission in November a good view you 467 00:34:13,559 --> 00:34:10,869 side of the latticework of the s0 trust 468 00:34:15,180 --> 00:34:13,569 from Danny Olivas helmet camera as he 469 00:34:18,569 --> 00:34:15,190 and Krista Fugelsang are in the early 470 00:34:21,599 --> 00:34:18,579 stages of preparing to D mate connectors 471 00:34:31,559 --> 00:34:21,609 electrical connectors from a failed rate 472 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:31,569 gyro assembly okay 41 retrieved 473 00:34:38,059 --> 00:34:34,210 disappear from the large oru bag install 474 00:34:41,549 --> 00:34:38,069 it on the guide rails you may need help 475 00:34:43,859 --> 00:34:41,559 with Olivas and Fugelsang working to 476 00:34:45,869 --> 00:34:43,869 peak efficiency today the spacewalk 477 00:34:48,359 --> 00:34:45,879 officer and Mission Control reports that 478 00:34:50,700 --> 00:34:48,369 the anticipation is once these two 479 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:50,710 Global Positioning System antennas are 480 00:34:58,640 --> 00:34:53,530 bolted into place we should be still 481 00:35:17,720 --> 00:35:00,990 all do are use that you've installed 482 00:35:23,579 --> 00:35:20,670 work up here we have a little bit of 483 00:35:26,099 --> 00:35:23,589 time to stay fit so that when we return 484 00:35:27,420 --> 00:35:26,109 we can function during the entry and the 485 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:27,430 landing at everything and be good to go 486 00:35:33,240 --> 00:35:29,770 after we all get on the ground this is a 487 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:33,250 red abort station which is a weight 488 00:35:37,620 --> 00:35:35,890 lifting machine that awesome zero-g so 489 00:35:39,510 --> 00:35:37,630 important to get the technique of this 490 00:35:40,770 --> 00:35:39,520 thing because it's some temple involved 491 00:35:47,100 --> 00:35:40,780 to keep it all out there so it's not 492 00:35:53,890 --> 00:35:50,500 the rest of my crew members in 1g I am 493 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:53,900 no acrobat or gymnast at all that it's 494 00:35:56,170 --> 00:35:55,850 amazing what a little z ogu can do for 495 00:36:21,910 --> 00:35:56,180 you 496 00:36:32,660 --> 00:36:29,300 we had a testament to the team 497 00:36:54,630 --> 00:36:32,670 I'll prepare excluding the little girls 498 00:36:59,400 --> 00:36:57,540 we are getting the nicole taking 499 00:37:00,839 --> 00:36:59,410 pictures of their gloves which will be 500 00:37:02,849 --> 00:37:00,849 sent to the ground to make get well the 501 00:37:04,530 --> 00:37:02,859 gloves are still pressurized to make 502 00:37:07,890 --> 00:37:04,540 sure that the gloves are usable for a 503 00:37:10,470 --> 00:37:07,900 future EVs there's a a very specific 504 00:37:13,140 --> 00:37:10,480 sequence which is followed for taking 505 00:37:14,700 --> 00:37:13,150 the pictures of the gloves and then the 506 00:37:18,330 --> 00:37:14,710 specialists on the ground will look at 507 00:37:20,609 --> 00:37:18,340 them very accurately and they have good 508 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:20,619 records from previous PDA so they know 509 00:37:24,210 --> 00:37:23,290 which if there was any damage that it 510 00:37:27,150 --> 00:37:24,220 might have been on this staff that 511 00:37:28,710 --> 00:37:27,160 spacewalk he do I do this final part of 512 00:37:30,349 --> 00:37:28,720 the defeating in parallel just to get 513 00:37:32,700 --> 00:37:30,359 the crew out of their suits quicker 514 00:37:35,430 --> 00:37:32,710 they've that how really long data and 515 00:37:46,010 --> 00:37:35,440 that - so long long time more than 8 516 00:37:50,790 --> 00:37:48,660 seriously I quit there are getting all 517 00:37:54,690 --> 00:37:50,800 the equipment ready after the EVs and 518 00:37:57,089 --> 00:37:54,700 you see me okay in RGA which is one of 519 00:37:59,640 --> 00:37:57,099 the pieces of our use that got replaced 520 00:38:02,270 --> 00:37:59,650 from my Eevee eight number three and 521 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:02,280 we're taking it to the mplm for storage 522 00:38:09,359 --> 00:38:05,290 and bringing it back hopefully for 523 00:38:15,390 --> 00:38:09,369 repair back on the ground as you can see 524 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:15,400 the NPRM is now nicely in better order 525 00:38:22,490 --> 00:38:17,890 because now we're putting our stuff away 526 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:26,839 for the e is over the team simply added 527 00:38:31,380 --> 00:38:29,530 instructions to reconfigure the seats 528 00:38:34,740 --> 00:38:31,390 for literally parts of the seats on 529 00:38:36,660 --> 00:38:34,750 orbit and then bringing our chairs out 530 00:38:37,890 --> 00:38:36,670 of service bring them back home with us 531 00:38:39,750 --> 00:38:37,900 the future large 532 00:38:42,540 --> 00:38:39,760 design so they can be disassembled 533 00:38:45,330 --> 00:38:42,550 fairly easily but here you see myself in 534 00:38:48,750 --> 00:38:45,340 picture taking arms and legs off 535 00:38:53,730 --> 00:38:48,760 abilities and performing the falafels 536 00:38:56,310 --> 00:38:53,740 departments very part there's the crew 537 00:38:59,280 --> 00:38:56,320 gathered in node one for final dinner 538 00:39:01,650 --> 00:38:59,290 together it's a very special time we had 539 00:39:04,910 --> 00:39:01,660 foods there from all the represented 540 00:39:08,790 --> 00:39:04,920 countries of course United States Russia 541 00:39:09,630 --> 00:39:08,800 Belgium crystal Watson Swedish food up 542 00:39:12,450 --> 00:39:09,640 here with him 543 00:39:14,610 --> 00:39:12,460 we had some Canadian food and some 544 00:39:16,230 --> 00:39:14,620 Japanese suit even left over from Co 545 00:39:19,350 --> 00:39:16,240 Ichi so there's that so is a very 546 00:39:22,140 --> 00:39:19,360 well-rounded smorgasbord as they say in 547 00:39:24,030 --> 00:39:22,150 Sweden and we had all that stuff's are 548 00:39:26,850 --> 00:39:24,040 ready to go there's a little tight 549 00:39:28,290 --> 00:39:26,860 quarters it's nice in zero gravity that 550 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:28,300 some of the crew members can float up 551 00:39:31,620 --> 00:39:30,850 high and kind of use their space so most 552 00:39:33,300 --> 00:39:31,630 efficiently 553 00:39:34,710 --> 00:39:33,310 of course it only takes after nights a 554 00:39:38,910 --> 00:39:34,720 few minutes before they start playing 555 00:39:40,820 --> 00:39:38,920 with their food and space is that thing 556 00:39:45,830 --> 00:39:40,830 to win ISA after night just 557 00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:52,200 like that the shrimp is a very popular 558 00:39:58,920 --> 00:39:57,370 item on most men use it to add some 559 00:40:02,960 --> 00:39:58,930 horseradish in there really clear out 560 00:40:10,290 --> 00:40:06,150 here's a toast to everybody drinking the 561 00:40:19,290 --> 00:40:10,300 recycled urine and I was a very happy 562 00:40:22,860 --> 00:40:19,300 moment there's a some tradition our lead 563 00:40:25,620 --> 00:40:22,870 spacewalker eg1 Danny Olivas is putting 564 00:40:28,290 --> 00:40:25,630 the sticker in the u.s. airlock on a 565 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:28,300 space station and then each crew member 566 00:40:38,310 --> 00:40:35,650 signs around the sticker there we also 567 00:40:41,250 --> 00:40:38,320 installed that crew sticker on the this 568 00:40:44,790 --> 00:40:41,260 is in node1 it's a tradition dates back 569 00:40:47,940 --> 00:40:44,800 all the way to sts-88 2i the first 570 00:40:51,390 --> 00:40:47,950 assembly mission and each crew is I put 571 00:40:57,630 --> 00:40:51,400 the patch on this panel and node1 so we 572 00:41:00,390 --> 00:40:57,640 have put a patch on there sts-128 pilot 573 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:00,400 Kevin Ford and mission specialist Jose 574 00:41:05,370 --> 00:41:02,290 Hernandez working on moving the Leonardo 575 00:41:07,050 --> 00:41:05,380 multi-purpose Logistics Module from the 576 00:41:09,420 --> 00:41:07,060 Harmony node back into Discovery's 577 00:41:11,250 --> 00:41:09,430 payload Bay it's very slow and 578 00:41:13,470 --> 00:41:11,260 methodical process once it is put back 579 00:41:15,650 --> 00:41:13,480 into Discovery's payload Bay there will 580 00:41:18,150 --> 00:41:15,660 be four latches that will be secured to 581 00:41:20,820 --> 00:41:18,160 hold Leonardo in place for the return 582 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:20,830 trip back home all of this activity is 583 00:41:23,910 --> 00:41:22,210 going on the rest of the crew is 584 00:41:26,250 --> 00:41:23,920 finishing up some transfer activities 585 00:41:27,690 --> 00:41:26,260 between shuttle Discovery and the 586 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:27,700 International Space Station making sure 587 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:30,130 that everything is on board Discovery's 588 00:41:51,990 --> 00:41:49,920 discovery yes 589 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:52,000 1:28 crew now saying farewell to their 590 00:41:56,700 --> 00:41:55,210 expedition 20 counterparts who have 591 00:42:09,230 --> 00:41:56,710 hosted them aboard the International 592 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:12,780 European seaman waters say Frankton and 593 00:42:23,599 --> 00:42:15,970 myself closing the hatch - they're in 594 00:42:26,990 --> 00:42:23,609 for him here we do the closing of the 595 00:42:32,299 --> 00:42:27,000 station side of the hatches that is the 596 00:42:34,890 --> 00:42:32,309 node 2 nadir hatch being so smart right 597 00:42:37,049 --> 00:42:34,900 here we're at the robotics workstation 598 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:37,059 for at the International Space Station 599 00:42:45,540 --> 00:42:41,890 using the big arm for unboxing the mplm 600 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:45,550 and today it was all it was our 601 00:42:51,450 --> 00:42:48,010 opportunity to unburden and put it back 602 00:42:54,329 --> 00:42:51,460 into the up payload Bay store into the 603 00:42:57,390 --> 00:42:54,339 payload Bay and we have great support 604 00:42:59,570 --> 00:42:57,400 from Pat who provided us shuttle camera 605 00:43:04,160 --> 00:42:59,580 abuse and 606 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:04,170 and also Kevin I help me by the view 607 00:43:09,710 --> 00:43:06,690 halfway through Kevin and I try to 608 00:43:12,470 --> 00:43:09,720 places and he actually brought it to the 609 00:43:15,950 --> 00:43:12,480 payload thing and it was a great 610 00:43:17,930 --> 00:43:15,960 experience operating the the 611 00:43:19,850 --> 00:43:17,940 International Space Station arm as 612 00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:19,860 opposed to the shuttle arm so that was 613 00:43:26,720 --> 00:43:24,570 they are aid so you need experience here 614 00:43:30,260 --> 00:43:26,730 you see the are the no to hatch where 615 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:30,270 the NPRM was connected and as it's being 616 00:43:36,830 --> 00:43:33,570 removed and put into the bay of the 617 00:43:38,570 --> 00:43:36,840 shuttle and mentioned earlier pad 618 00:43:44,420 --> 00:43:38,580 working the cameras on the federal side 619 00:43:47,660 --> 00:43:44,430 to make sure hope usually needed to and 620 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:47,670 we can go in for sorting it inside the 621 00:43:59,810 --> 00:43:56,610 big thing the call putting on the the 622 00:44:02,270 --> 00:43:59,820 docking mechanism alignment edge that is 623 00:44:07,250 --> 00:44:02,280 when we use to earth and under from 624 00:44:10,130 --> 00:44:07,260 space station if they cross form which 625 00:44:13,070 --> 00:44:10,140 is uh have a standoff on it and you see 626 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:13,080 we align it to the over wire right there 627 00:44:26,289 --> 00:44:16,970 and this is a final hatch closure for 628 00:44:32,829 --> 00:44:29,650 every stand on that big loop you are go 629 00:44:42,260 --> 00:44:32,839 for unboxing copy Houston go for 630 00:44:57,470 --> 00:44:44,450 damn station from discovery physical 631 00:45:02,070 --> 00:45:00,120 this view of the International Space 632 00:45:03,750 --> 00:45:02,080 Station from Discovery through the 633 00:45:06,030 --> 00:45:03,760 s-band communication system the 634 00:45:09,690 --> 00:45:06,040 sequential still video that refreshes 635 00:45:11,310 --> 00:45:09,700 itself every few seconds showing the 636 00:45:13,609 --> 00:45:11,320 view from a centreline camera in the 637 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:13,619 orbiter docking system with Discovery 638 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:35,160 with a palette of puffy clouds providing 639 00:45:42,210 --> 00:45:39,450 a backdrop shuttle Discovery 652 feet 640 00:45:44,910 --> 00:45:42,220 below the International Space Station as 641 00:45:49,220 --> 00:45:44,920 the two crafts approached the west coast 642 00:45:55,050 --> 00:45:51,870 you can see a good view here of the 643 00:45:56,910 --> 00:45:55,060 orbiter boom sensor system the 50-foot 644 00:45:59,940 --> 00:45:56,920 long boom extension mated to the 645 00:46:03,060 --> 00:45:59,950 shuttles robotic arm that will come into 646 00:46:06,020 --> 00:46:03,070 play a few hours from now when Kevin 647 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:06,030 Ford Pat Forrester and Jose Hernandez 648 00:46:10,980 --> 00:46:09,010 work the procedures for the so called 649 00:46:12,870 --> 00:46:10,990 late inspection of the reinforced 650 00:46:22,890 --> 00:46:12,880 carbon-carbon on the leading edges of 651 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:25,920 okay Houston discovery welcome to our 652 00:46:30,390 --> 00:46:28,210 playdate well I like funny a mid-deck 653 00:46:33,770 --> 00:46:30,400 this morning we had a specialty of our 654 00:46:37,050 --> 00:46:33,780 crew as these breakfast burritos made by 655 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:37,060 Danny Olivas and Jose Hernandez you can 656 00:46:42,510 --> 00:46:38,770 see it's a little tricky in zero-g 657 00:46:43,890 --> 00:46:42,520 wasn't all the ingredients into the 30s 658 00:46:45,720 --> 00:46:43,900 but so long 659 00:46:47,610 --> 00:46:45,730 well that is a smiley face I see that 660 00:46:51,060 --> 00:46:47,620 one now Danny made a smiley face anyway 661 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:51,070 then we put the eggs on there at iam you 662 00:46:58,200 --> 00:46:54,690 can see carefully are placing the eggs 663 00:47:06,080 --> 00:46:58,210 inside the burrito to any is an expert 664 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:06,090 in in bilgey burrito making and that Tim 665 00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:08,650 corporatist decided to taste the very 666 00:47:13,470 --> 00:47:10,810 first one and he gave us his honest 667 00:47:18,130 --> 00:47:13,480 opinion and obviously it looks like he 668 00:47:25,430 --> 00:47:23,390 and in time for undocking prepared the 669 00:47:28,070 --> 00:47:25,440 system is set up and it's basically only 670 00:47:30,710 --> 00:47:28,080 to count down to the undocking moment 671 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:30,720 when it has been copied exactly to the 672 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:34,170 second when it should happen excitement 673 00:47:47,060 --> 00:47:42,570 is giving up and English and look lights 674 00:47:51,980 --> 00:47:47,070 went off true starts to turn and look 675 00:47:58,030 --> 00:47:51,990 and about two minutes later we are off 676 00:48:03,470 --> 00:48:01,130 many many hours of practice at home with 677 00:48:04,970 --> 00:48:03,480 our instructors really paid off today we 678 00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:04,980 were really happy with the way the fly 679 00:48:11,329 --> 00:48:07,890 around went and nice state separation 680 00:48:13,310 --> 00:48:11,339 and hopefully we got some good images to 681 00:48:14,810 --> 00:48:13,320 send home to everybody see what this 682 00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:14,820 International Space Station is all about 683 00:48:22,430 --> 00:48:19,650 it's really spectacular Kevin mentioned 684 00:48:24,380 --> 00:48:22,440 he had a lot of company up on the flight 685 00:48:27,170 --> 00:48:24,390 deck today but believe it or not most 686 00:48:29,990 --> 00:48:27,180 everyone up there has a purpose we do 687 00:48:31,690 --> 00:48:30,000 photo documentation of the station most 688 00:48:37,539 --> 00:48:31,700 of it required and those photos will be 689 00:48:40,989 --> 00:48:39,909 it's just pictures don't capture what 690 00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:40,999 it's like when you look out the window 691 00:48:49,829 --> 00:48:43,729 we do our best but so those things that 692 00:48:57,539 --> 00:48:54,309 we step on up away from the space 693 00:49:00,789 --> 00:48:57,549 station we begin to get ready for 694 00:49:03,249 --> 00:49:00,799 inspection ladies section basically we 695 00:49:04,809 --> 00:49:03,259 pull out the robotic arm and the the 696 00:49:06,989 --> 00:49:04,819 boom system with the sensor packets on 697 00:49:09,429 --> 00:49:06,999 the end and to do a final inspection 698 00:49:14,679 --> 00:49:09,439 make sure that the ship is ready to come 699 00:49:16,929 --> 00:49:14,689 to the atmosphere and come home we ended 700 00:49:19,959 --> 00:49:16,939 the day a little bit of levity and fun 701 00:49:21,909 --> 00:49:19,969 playing with with the water and just 702 00:49:25,259 --> 00:49:21,919 demonstrating what you can do and 703 00:49:27,909 --> 00:49:25,269 gravity here you see Danny Olivas 704 00:49:31,870 --> 00:49:27,919 squirting out some water from a drink 705 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:31,880 bag and a lifesaver in the center we're 706 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:46,160 turned out pretty well and you know it's 707 00:49:49,790 --> 00:49:48,330 it's one of the skills that all our 708 00:49:55,410 --> 00:49:49,800 songs have to be able to play with water 709 00:50:08,410 --> 00:50:05,140 go into the kill at Edwards Air Force 710 00:50:12,039 --> 00:50:08,420 Base California the convoy begins to 711 00:50:13,509 --> 00:50:12,049 head to the edge of the dry lakebed you 712 00:50:16,630 --> 00:50:13,519 can see the vehicle in the back of that 713 00:50:19,809 --> 00:50:16,640 people mover is the crew transport 714 00:50:21,130 --> 00:50:19,819 vehicle entry flight director richard 715 00:50:22,509 --> 00:50:21,140 jones and the entry team of flight 716 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:22,519 controllers have been on console since 717 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:24,729 10 o'clock this morning 718 00:50:29,170 --> 00:50:27,650 it was a very clear-cut decision earlier 719 00:50:30,819 --> 00:50:29,180 in the day to waive off both of the 720 00:50:32,199 --> 00:50:30,829 landing opportunities to the Kennedy 721 00:50:34,299 --> 00:50:32,209 Space Center because of stormy 722 00:50:36,189 --> 00:50:34,309 conditions very unstable tropical light 723 00:50:40,209 --> 00:50:36,199 conditions bringing in showers and 724 00:50:41,949 --> 00:50:40,219 thundershowers to encroach the 30 725 00:50:43,569 --> 00:50:41,959 nautical mile radial circle of the 726 00:50:46,539 --> 00:50:43,579 landing strip at the Kennedy Space 727 00:50:48,609 --> 00:50:46,549 Center today so it was clearly not a 728 00:50:51,249 --> 00:50:48,619 good day to land in Florida and the 729 00:50:52,809 --> 00:50:51,259 shuttle landing then was diverted 3,000 730 00:50:55,029 --> 00:50:52,819 miles to the west to the test flight 731 00:50:57,359 --> 00:50:55,039 center at the Dryden Flight Research 732 00:50:59,769 --> 00:50:57,369 Center at
