--> 00:10:11,839 work they did and with the great 134 00:10:16,150 --> 00:10:14,079 teamwork all day by uh by all parties 135 00:10:19,110 --> 00:10:16,160 involved the ground and the 136 00:10:24,710 --> 00:10:19,120 flight crews who just had a terrific day 137 00:10:30,150 --> 00:10:27,509 one of our big tasks on the eva 138 00:10:34,389 --> 00:10:32,389 move the ammonia tank assembly and and 139 00:10:35,990 --> 00:10:34,399 part of that required rick and i to go 140 00:10:38,069 --> 00:10:36,000 to the payload bay 141 00:10:39,590 --> 00:10:38,079 and prepare that to be removed and 142 00:10:41,030 --> 00:10:39,600 that's what you're seeing right here 143 00:10:41,829 --> 00:10:41,040 clay's on the left and rick's on the 144 00:10:43,670 --> 00:10:41,839 right 145 00:10:46,150 --> 00:10:43,680 and i'm in a foot restraint so that i 146 00:10:47,590 --> 00:10:46,160 can hold this 1800 pound thing when rick 147 00:10:49,829 --> 00:10:47,600 helps me lift it off and we're going to 148 00:10:52,310 --> 00:10:49,839 hand it to the arm operators 149 00:10:54,550 --> 00:10:52,320 and of course dottie was wonderful today 150 00:10:56,150 --> 00:10:54,560 she's just our quarterback inside the 151 00:10:57,030 --> 00:10:56,160 shuttle and tells us what to do and of 152 00:10:59,030 --> 00:10:57,040 course 153 00:11:00,550 --> 00:10:59,040 she's a former teacher so we do exactly 154 00:11:04,550 --> 00:11:00,560 what she tells us otherwise she might 155 00:11:07,910 --> 00:11:06,150 a lot of the big teamwork things today 156 00:11:10,710 --> 00:11:07,920 was uh between the robotics team and the 157 00:11:12,870 --> 00:11:10,720 eda team and here you see uh steph and 158 00:11:14,710 --> 00:11:12,880 jim flying the arm and it's really 159 00:11:17,910 --> 00:11:14,720 incredible uh stephanie did a fantastic 160 00:11:19,910 --> 00:11:17,920 job uh grappling a moving target 161 00:11:23,350 --> 00:11:19,920 yeah it was a lot of fun to work 162 00:11:24,389 --> 00:11:23,360 with clay and rick today and with jim 163 00:11:25,590 --> 00:11:24,399 they 164 00:11:27,750 --> 00:11:25,600 had a little bit of trouble getting the 165 00:11:30,630 --> 00:11:27,760 tank unbolted but were able to overcome 166 00:11:32,790 --> 00:11:30,640 that with their hard work and clay was 167 00:11:34,949 --> 00:11:32,800 holding it up for us nice and 168 00:11:36,630 -->

the end of this 172 00:11:43,670 --> 00:11:41,920 spacewalk we were stowing the ammonia 173 00:11:45,670 --> 00:11:43,680 tank onto the uh 174 00:11:47,670 --> 00:11:45,680 the payload accommodations oru as a 175 00:11:53,110 --> 00:11:47,680 temporary location and we'll pick up 176 00:11:57,750 --> 00:11:55,350 this is jim i think uh the high point 177 00:12:00,710 --> 00:11:57,760 for me today was when stephanie i had a 178 00:12:02,470 --> 00:12:00,720 few pause points during our robotics 179 00:12:04,069 --> 00:12:02,480 and we had a chance to take turns 180 00:12:06,310 --> 00:12:04,079 sneaking away from the robotic station 181 00:12:08,550 --> 00:12:06,320 down into the cupola and take a look at 182 00:12:09,350 --> 00:12:08,560 the arm and its different configurations 183 00:12:11,910 --> 00:12:09,360 just 184 00:12:14,629 --> 00:12:11,920 you know 10 20 feet out from the windows 185 00:12:17,829 --> 00:12:14,639 the incredible views of the earth going 186 00:12:20,069 --> 00:12:17,839 by behind with some sunsets and 187 00:12:21,430 --> 00:12:20,079 and different landmasses passing it was 188 00:12:22,949 --> 00:12:21,440 phenomenal 189 00:12:32,870 --> 00:12:22,959 so 190 00:12:35,509 --> 00:12:32,880 at work in the mplm 191 00:12:37,829 --> 00:12:35,519 and we were able to get 192 00:12:38,790 --> 00:12:37,839 five of our seven racks transferred 193 00:12:40,470 --> 00:12:38,800 today 194 00:12:42,870 --> 00:12:40,480 and uh maroco 195 00:12:44,790 --> 00:12:42,880 did just a a wonderful job 196 00:12:45,509 --> 00:12:44,800 she worked with all of us occasionally 197 00:12:47,509 --> 00:12:45,519 and 198 00:12:49,829 --> 00:12:47,519 a lot with suici today 199 00:12:51,590 --> 00:12:49,839 moving uh moving most of the 200 00:12:53,030 --> 00:12:51,600 mplm uh out 201 00:12:55,269 --> 00:12:53,040 into the various locations around the 202 00:12:56,949 --> 00:12:55,279 space station and moving a lot of the 203 00:12:58,389 --> 00:12:56,959 return supply 204 00:13:00,949 --> 00:12:58,399 back into place 205 00:13:03,990 --> 00:13:00,959 then here's the views in the mplm and 206 00:13:05,430 --> 00:13:04,000 here's soichi and naoko 207 00:13:07,590 --> 00:13:05,440 and they're 208 00:13:11,670 --> 00:13:07,600 working on moving another rack and 209 00:13:16,470 --> 00:13:13,110 yeah this is the marriage rack which is 210 00:13:18,790 --> 00:13:16,480 a muscle atrophy uh resistance 211 00:13:19,750 --> 00:13:18,800 science rack and it goes in the columbus 212 00:13:21,590 --> 00:13:19,760 module 213 00:13:23,269 --> 00:13:21,600 and again this is a full-size rack about 214 00:13:25,430 --> 00:13:23,279 the size of a 215 00:13:27,910 --> 00:13:25,440 of a large household refrigerator 216 00:13:30,069 --> 00:13:27,920 and it moves through the hatches very 217 00:13:31,990 --> 00:13:30,079 easily but again it has a lot of mass so 218 00:13:33,590 --> 00:13:32,000 once you get it moving it's quite 219 00:13:36,310 --> 00:13:33,600 difficult to stop so we have to be 220 00:13:37,190 --> 00:13:36,320 careful not to not to hit anything 221 00:13:39,030 --> 00:13:37,200 and 222 00:13:41,350 --> 00:13:39,040 we come out of the 223 00:13:46,710 --> 00:13:41,360 out of the mplm and turn it 90 degrees 224 00:13:52,150 --> 00:13:49,430 yeah it was very fun to see uh 225 00:13:54,790 --> 00:13:52,160 working with the transfer and also suici 226 00:13:57,030 --> 00:13:54,800 and the help of the spacing crew oleg 227 00:13:59,350 --> 00:13:57,040 helped us for a while today 228 00:14:01,110 --> 00:13:59,360 and dottie and jim and dex were also 229 00:14:02,629 --> 00:14:01,120 involved in transfer so we were able to 230 00:14:04,230 --> 00:14:02,639 transfer these racks 231 00:14:06,389 --> 00:14:04,240 uh get someone to pre-pack the space 232 00:14:09,189 --> 00:14:06,399 station crew has worked hard to pack for 233 00:14:11,430 --> 00:14:09,199 us into the mplm and 234 00:14:14,710 --> 00:14:11,440 we have also started to offload some of 235 00:14:16,550 --> 00:14:14,720 the resupply so it's a great team and we 236 00:14:19,189 --> 00:14:16,560 are enjoying the mplm it's a great 237 00:14:21,030 --> 00:14:19,199 volume there's already been some 238 00:14:27,590 --> 00:14:21,040 some bungee jumping and some flips in 239 00:14:31,509 --> 00:14:28,870 one of the things that's important to 240 00:14:33,030 --> 00:14:31,519 understand about all this transfer is 241 00:14:35,430 --> 00:14:33,040 the amount of work that went on on the 242 00:14:37,430 --> 00:14:35,440 ground prior to the mission to 243 00:14:39,269 --> 00:14:37,440 you know this is it's like a uh one of 244 00:14:41,030 --> 00:14:39,279 those games we all used to play as kids 245 00:14:42,949 --> 00:14:41,040 where you had to move all the squares 246 00:14:45,670 --> 00:14:42,959 and look for open holes and it's very 247 00:14:47,670 --> 00:14:45,680 choreographed in that we have to move 248 00:14:49,269 --> 00:14:47,680 one thing slide something over move 249 00:14:50,949 --> 00:14:49,279 something up and pull something back 250 00:14:53,110 --> 00:14:50,959 down to get out the piece that we want 251 00:14:55,350 --> 00:14:53,120 and then be able to transfer it so a lot 252 00:14:57,110 --> 00:14:55,360 of thanks goes out to all the guys and 253 00:14:58,710 --> 00:14:57,120 gals on the ground that put so many 254 00:15:01,110 --> 00:14:58,720 hours together to make this very 255 00:15:03,750 --> 00:15:01,120 choreographed plan that we just go up 256 00:15:06,389 --> 00:15:03,760 and execute and and the fact that we're 257 00:15:10,550 --> 00:15:06,399 way ahead of this transfer timeline is a 258 00:15:15,030 --> 00:15:12,550 again i just can't say it enough uh what 259 00:15:17,189 --> 00:15:15,040 what great teamwork uh 260 00:15:18,550 --> 00:15:17,199 that we saw all day today uh all around 261 00:15:19,750 --> 00:15:18,560 the space station and the shuttle 262 00:15:20,870 --> 00:15:19,760 complex 263 00:15:22,389 --> 00:15:20,880 on the ground 264 00:15:23,350 --> 00:15:22,399 we just got a tremendous amount of work 265 00:15:25,750 --> 00:15:23,360 done 266 00:15:33,670 --> 00:15:25,760 and uh it's just phenomenal to see this 267 00:15:37,189 --> 00:15:35,430 after a hard day's work it was nice to 268 00:15:39,430

00:15:52,870 --> 00:15:50,160 space walk and leading them through 276 00:16:16,230 --> 00:15:52,880 setting up the tools it was just nice 277 00:16:20,949 --> 00:16:17,829 we started off the 278 00:16:26,550 --> 00:16:24,389 six uh doing some water ops and uh this 279 00:16:28,150 --> 00:16:26,560 is uh this is me down in the on the mid 280 00:16:31,350 --> 00:16:28,160 deck front of the galley 281 00:16:33,509 --> 00:16:31,360 filling up a cwc bag and uh 282 00:16:35,430 --> 00:16:33,519 inserting some silver biocide into it 283 00:16:37,749 --> 00:16:35,440 this is technical water that is over on 284 00:16:40,310 --> 00:16:37,759 the station 285 00:16:41,829 --> 00:16:40,320 and uh just after that jim and value 286 00:16:43,749 --> 00:16:41,839 were up on the flight deck 287 00:16:45,670 --> 00:16:43,759 and there's never a dull moment on a 288 00:16:47,030 --> 00:16:45,680 shuttle flight and so uh jim and i are 289 00:16:51,030 --> 00:16:47,040 wearing our t-shirts this morning 290 00:16:52,550 --> 00:16:51,040 because we basically got up and had this 291 00:16:54,629 --> 00:16:52,560 procedure to fly and then we were going 292 00:16:57,269 --> 00:16:54,639 to exercise afterwards 293 00:16:58,790 --> 00:16:57,279 but you can see this procedure 294 00:17:00,949 --> 00:16:58,800 it had some 295 00:17:03,509 --> 00:17:00,959 fairly close clearances with the 296 00:17:05,189 --> 00:17:03,519 gem module but all of it could be viewed 297 00:17:09,270 --> 00:17:05,199 basically out of the commander's window 298 00:17:16,549 --> 00:17:11,990 and this is clay and me transforming 299 00:17:20,630 --> 00:17:17,510 and 300 00:17:22,309 --> 00:17:20,640 today we transferred two racks into the 301 00:17:25,270 --> 00:17:22,319 space station 302 00:17:29,110 --> 00:17:25,280 this is walls uh the arts observatory 303 00:17:31,270 --> 00:17:29,120 rack which goes into the ui laboratory 304 00:17:34,310 --> 00:17:31,280 it enhances the earth observation 305 00:17:35,190 --> 00:17:34,320 capability a lot with our 306 00:17:36,230 --> 00:17:35,200 uh 307 00:17:40,549 --> 00:17:36,240 remote 308 00:17:42,789 --> 00:17:40,559 the whole 309 00:17:45,510 --> 00:17:42,799 the window and the camera and video 310 00:17:51,350 --> 00:17:49,590 as you see the rack is so big it just 311 00:17:53,430 --> 00:17:51,360 fits the heart 312 00:17:56,310 --> 00:17:53,440 so we have to very 313 00:17:57,110 --> 00:17:56,320 we have to be very careful we didn't hit 314 00:17:59,669 --> 00:17:57,120 any 315 00:18:03,750 --> 00:17:59,679 heart shield or structures 316 00:18:06,390 --> 00:18:03,760 so we move very slow and steady 317 00:18:08,950 --> 00:18:06,400 and this is another teamwork uh two or 318 00:18:09,909 --> 00:18:08,960 three crew members uh 319 00:18:13,350 --> 00:18:09,919 work 320 00:18:19,990 --> 00:18:13,360 together to transfer the wall flux and 321 00:18:22,950 --> 00:18:21,270 i was actually 322 00:18:24,470 --> 00:18:22,960 behind now so waiting to get through the 323 00:18:26,549 --> 00:18:24,480 lab 324 00:18:28,950 --> 00:18:26,559 when this was going on watching her do 325 00:18:29,990 --> 00:18:28,960 it now several of us have commented that 326 00:18:33,669 --> 00:18:30,000 uh 327 00:18:35,029 --> 00:18:33,679 ops that 328 00:18:37,350 --> 00:18:35,039 they're uh 329 00:18:41,190 --> 00:18:37,360 like fish and water they uh they move so 330 00:18:43,350 --> 00:18:41,200 gracefully with these these huge rocks 331 00:18:44,549 --> 00:18:43,360 you know hundreds of pounds so 332 00:18:46,150 --> 00:18:44,559 um 333 00:18:47,830 --> 00:18:46,160 it's one of those things where if you 334 00:18:49,830 --> 00:18:47,840 get it get it moving in the wrong 335 00:18:53,990 --> 00:18:49,840 direction it's really hard to stop it 336 00:18:59,270 --> 00:18:56,630 and most of our day all of us were uh at 337 00:19:00,710 --> 00:18:59,280 some point doing transfer um 338 00:19:02,630 --> 00:19:00,720 which uh 339 00:19:04,710 --> 00:19:02,640 is a lot like moving and we talked a 340 00:19:05,909 --> 00:19:04,720 little bit about yesterday how it's um 341 00:19:08,710 --> 00:19:05,919 kind of like a game where you have to 342 00:19:10,549 --> 00:19:08,720 move some things out of the station 343 00:19:13,430 --> 00:19:10,559 to make room for things coming out of 344 00:19:15,350 --> 00:19:13,440 the multi-purpose logistics module 345 00:19:16,950 --> 00:19:15,360 and today we are really putting that 346 00:19:18,789 --> 00:19:16,960 dance into play 347 00:19:22,230 --> 00:19:18,799 and when you go into the multi-purpose 348 00:19:24,870 --> 00:19:22,240 logistics module it is very empty 349 00:19:26,310 --> 00:19:24,880 and now we have the hard task of filling 350 00:19:28,390 --> 00:19:26,320 it back up 351 00:19:30,150 --> 00:19:28,400 so now we're going and finding a whole 352 00:19:32,150 --> 00:19:30,160 bunch of bags and trying to figure out 353 00:19:38,310 --> 00:19:32,160 where they go and as you can see that's 354 00:19:43,110 --> 00:19:40,549 well after daddy and i did the 355 00:19:46,630 --> 00:19:43,120 pdrs work got a chance to go over and 356

effective and it 359 00:19:55,590 --> 00:19:52,559 feels good to put some weight on the 360 00:19:59,990 --> 00:19:57,510 a-red's a great machine and uh here's 361 00:20:01,750 --> 00:20:00,000 jim

before we head outside to do 426 00:22:27,350 --> 00:22:26,320 our eva and you see how many people it 427 00:22:30,870 --> 00:22:27,360 takes to 428 00:22:35,590 --> 00:22:32,710 a lot of work and effort and 429 00:22:38,470 --> 00:22:35,600 pre-planning goes into evas also this is 430 00:22:39,990 --> 00:22:38,480 stephanie mayoko in the mplm 431 00:22:41,270 --> 00:22:40,000 you know they're doing simultaneous 432 00:22:43,990 --> 00:22:41,280 operations 433 00:22:45,909 --> 00:22:44,000 uh trying to do a lot of resupply and uh 434 00:22:48,390 --> 00:22:45,919 return supply work 435 00:22:51,029 --> 00:22:48,400 and uh really really busy 436 00:22:52,310 --> 00:22:51,039 today was just a stellar example of a 437 00:22:55,590 --> 00:22:52,320 great teamwork 438 00:22:57,990 --> 00:22:55,600 so we had stephanie and jim honey harm 439 00:22:59,830 --> 00:22:58,000 rick and clay outside 440 00:23:01,190 --> 00:22:59,840 dottie on the flight deck front of the 441 00:23:03,510 --> 00:23:01,200 whole show 442 00:23:05,590 --> 00:23:03,520 and uh with lots of communication lots 443 00:23:07,510 --> 00:23:05,600 of practice lots of teamwork and a lot 444 00:23:09,510 --> 00:23:07,520 of help with from the ground 445 00:23:11,510 --> 00:23:09,520 with a lot of great planning 446 00:23:13,590 --> 00:23:11,520 and a year of training 447 00:23:16,070 --> 00:23:13,600 they were able to execute the plan 448 00:23:18,310 --> 00:23:16,080 really well 449 00:23:20,870 --> 00:23:18,320 this is on the cedar card 450 00:23:22,390 --> 00:23:20,880 on the truss of the space station 451 00:23:24,710 --> 00:23:22,400 and cedar is a crew equipment 452 00:23:25,669 --> 00:23:24,720 translation aid and they were preparing 453 00:23:27,830 --> 00:23:25,679 this 454 00:23:28,789 --> 00:23:27,840 uh cedar cart as a temporary storage 455 00:23:30,070 --> 00:23:28,799 place 456 00:23:32,390 --> 00:23:30,080 for the ammonia tank that was going to 457 00:23:34,870 --> 00:23:32,400 come out of the truck on the back side 458 00:23:36,630 --> 00:23:34,880 they just handed that that tank off to a 459 00:23:38,390 --> 00:23:36,640 stephen gym on the arm 460 00:23:40,789 --> 00:23:38,400 and then the old tank was going to be 461 00:23:42,710 --> 00:23:40,799 placed temporarily on this cedar cart 462 00:23:45,029 --> 00:23:42,720 while they took the new tank 463 00:23:47,669 --> 00:23:45,039 and took it off of the 464 00:23:50,070 --> 00:23:47,679 the payload attach mechanism on the 465 00:23:53,909 --> 00:23:50,080 mobile base system and took it across 466 00:23:57,750 --> 00:23:55,269 one of the things that was interesting 467 00:23:59,669 --> 00:23:57,760 today and unique for both rick and i was 468 00:24:02,230 --> 00:23:59,679 the fact that we were on the backside of 469 00:24:04,789 --> 00:24:02,240 the truss a lot for the station we found 470 00:24:06,630 --> 00:24:04,799 that the extremes of hot temperature and 471 00:24:07,830 --> 00:24:06,640 cold temperature were 472 00:24:11,430 --> 00:24:07,840 quite 473 00:24:13,430 --> 00:24:11,440 pronounced compared to our previous evas 474 00:24:16,070 --> 00:24:13,440 i'm sure we'll be able to find out 475 00:24:16,830 --> 00:24:16,080 exactly why that is we have an idea but 476 00:24:19,510 --> 00:24:16,840 we'll 477 00:24:21,110 --> 00:24:19,520 see here's the view inside the 478 00:24:23,669 --> 00:24:21,120 laboratory module at the robotics 479 00:24:25,830 --> 00:24:23,679 workstation uh jim and i were hard at 480 00:24:27,029 --> 00:24:25,840 work uh flying the arm and trying to do 481 00:24:28,710 --> 00:24:27,039 our best to 482 00:24:30,710 --> 00:24:28,720 keep it steady 483 00:24:32,630 --> 00:24:30,720 as we were either going over the pin or 484 00:24:34,789 --> 00:24:32,640 coming off of the pin for rick and clay 485 00:24:36,630 --> 00:24:34,799 and they were holding it steady for us 486 00:24:38,950 --> 00:24:36,640 and there's always of course uh time for 487 00:24:40,870 --> 00:24:38,960 a little camaraderie and uh and meal and 488 00:24:42,630 --> 00:24:40,880 this is back in the russian segment in 489 00:24:43,750 --> 00:24:42,640 the service module 490 00:24:47,029 --> 00:24:43,760 and uh 491 00:24:49,590 --> 00:24:47,039 we have three russian coprats on board 492 00:24:52,310 --> 00:24:49,600 and uh there you have the suici 493

00:25:12,880 she's uh right there installing the 497 00:25:16,870 --> 00:25:15,200 glacier into the lab rack and these are 498 00:25:18,390 --> 00:25:16,880 large freezers that 499 00:25:20,390 --> 00:25:18,400 we brought up and 500 00:25:23,590 --> 00:25:20,400 and she installed one of those today 501 00:25:25,750 --> 00:25:23,600 this is now go again inside the mplm 502 00:25:29,430 --> 00:25:25,760 and you can see that it's a 503 00:25:30,789 --> 00:25:29,440 chock full of resupply racks and 504 00:25:32,390 --> 00:25:30,799 and 505 00:25:33,269 --> 00:25:32,400 storage bags 506

we 559 00:28:45,669 --> 00:28:44,159 were very busy to reconfigure the mplm 560 00:28:48,870 --> 00:28:45,679 for return 561 00:28:51,830 --> 00:28:48,880 so a lot of form piece of forms 562 00:28:54,470 --> 00:28:51,840 we have to reconfigure for return which 563 00:28:56,149 --> 00:28:54,480 is different location from the resupply 564 00:29:00,149 --> 00:28:56,159 so we are 565 00:29:01,909 --> 00:29:00,159 working very hard to park everything 566 00:29:03,110 --> 00:29:01,919 we've had a couple of shots of video so 567 00:29:05,430 --> 00:29:03,120 people could see what these racks look 568 00:29:07,750 --> 00:29:05,440 like that that's a resupply rack it has 569 00:29:10,470 --> 00:29:07,760 different uh different storage volumes 570 00:29:13,029 --> 00:29:10,480 for uh different bags this is a resupply 571 00:29:15,510 --> 00:29:13,039 platform an rsp we call it with 572 00:29:17,430 --> 00:29:15,520 different with different size bags and 573 00:29:18,710 --> 00:29:17,440 there are several of those along each 574 00:29:20,630 --> 00:29:18,720 side and they can also rotate you can 575 00:29:22,310 --> 00:29:20,640 see one in the back background there 576 00:29:24,310 --> 00:29:22,320 that's rotated out of the way so we can 577 00:29:25,750 --> 00:29:24,320 get behind it because there are bags 578 00:29:27,909 --> 00:29:25,760 behind it as well 579

00:32:15,269 --> 00:32:13,360 bright blue waters 649 00:32:16,870 --> 00:32:15,279 really really stunning views 650 00:32:18,470 --> 00:32:16,880 and you can see the 651 00:32:19,190 --> 00:32:18,480 high contrast that you get there with 652 00:32:20,549 --> 00:32:19,200 the 653 00:32:22,710 --> 00:32:20,559 earth limb and 654 00:32:30,950 --> 00:32:22,720 and there's a shuttle ku italian view as 655 00:32:34,789 --> 00:32:33,110 my job is to just uh watch everybody and 656 00:32:42,310 --> 00:32:34,799 uh 657 00:32:44,310 --> 00:32:42,320 and helping keep track of all the small 658 00:32:45,909 --> 00:32:44,320 tasks that need to go on and uh 659 00:32:47,590 --> 00:32:45,919 delivering food and coffee to those that 660 00:32:49,110 --> 00:32:47,600 wanted it uh we've got such a hard 661 00:32:51,029 --> 00:32:49,120 working team up here 662 00:32:53,990 --> 00:32:51,039 they uh 663 00:32:55,750 --> 00:32:54,000 they used me as a runner and uh 664 00:32:57,750 --> 00:32:55,760 and uh to do the most miscellaneous 665 00:32:58,789 --> 00:32:57,760 tasks that everybody else can't get done 666 00:33:01,509 --> 00:32:58,799 because they're so busy doing the 667 00:33:05,509 --> 00:33:03,509 and uh sometimes you just have to make 668 00:33:08,470 --> 00:33:05,519 things that and as you can see here in 669 00:33:10,470 --> 00:33:08,480 the elko is uh getting all the foam and 670 00:33:12,470 --> 00:33:10,480 bags into place 671 00:33:16,389 --> 00:33:12,480 there's a real team effort to get 672 00:33:23,350 --> 00:33:18,630 and then she is being

cbm 753 00:37:24,870 --> 00:37:23,440 worked at advertised 754 00:37:26,390 --> 00:37:24,880 that you're able to work through your 755 00:37:28,630 --> 00:37:26,400 troubleshooting procedures 756 00:37:30,310 --> 00:37:28,640 uh we will take you up on your offer to 757 00:37:35,349 --> 00:37:30,320 sleep in one hour early we'll set up our 758 00:37:41,270 --> 00:37:38,470 copy 900 1900 for the wake up time we 759 00:37:46,230 --> 00:37:41,280 just need saving on the arm and standard 760 00:37:53,430 --> 00:37:48,630 we're black station discovery uh 761 00:37:57,750 --> 00:37:55,270 the space station's robotic arm is now 762 00:37:59,750 --> 00:37:57,760 in motion getting ready to pack the 763 00:38:01,510 --> 00:37:59,760 leonardo multi-purpose logistics module 764 00:38:03,589 --> 00:38:01,520 into the shuttle's cargo bay for return 765 00:38:05,589 --> 00:38:03,599 to earth 766 00:38:08,310 --> 00:38:05,599 arms being controlled from the station's 767 00:38:10,310 --> 00:38:08,320 destiny laboratory robotic workstation 768 00:38:16,310 --> 00:38:10,320 by mission specialist stephanie wilson 769 00:38:22,870 --> 00:38:19,910 discovery recording is on 770 00:38:24,470 --> 00:38:22,880 discovery copies 771 00:38:26,950 --> 00:38:24,480 getting a view we don't normally get to 772 00:38:28,870 --> 00:38:26,960 see of the inspection of the shuttle's 773 00:38:30,790 --> 00:38:28,880 heat shield 774 00:38:33,510 --> 00:38:30,800 it's being performed before the shuttle 775 00:38:35,829 --> 00:38:33,520 undocks due to the fact that the 776 00:38:36,790 --> 00:38:35,839 shuttle's own ku band antenna 777 00:38:38,630 --> 00:38:36,800 is uh 778 00:38:40,870 --> 00:38:38,640 not working this mission so they're 779 00:38:42,470 --> 00:38:40,880 taking advantage of the station's ku 780 00:38:44,230 --> 00:38:42,480 band antenna which allows them to send 781 00:38:47,430 --> 00:38:44,240 large packets of information down to the 782 00:38:48,870 --> 00:38:47,440 ground and also video 783 00:38:51,270 --> 00:38:48,880 and that's necessary to get the 784 00:38:53,349 --> 00:38:51,280 information from the 785 00:38:55,190 --> 00:38:53,359 heat heat shield inspection down to the 786 00:38:57,349 --> 00:38:55,200 experts on the ground to then study it 787 00:38:59,589 --> 00:38:57,359 for any sign that discovery's heat 788 00:39:06,470 --> 00:38:59,599 shield might have been damaged while 789 00:39:09,510 --> 00:39:08,630 we started off late day 12 790 00:39:11,030 --> 00:39:09,520 with some 791 00:39:13,270 --> 00:39:11,040 international space station robotics 792 00:39:15,109 --> 00:39:13,280 operations to put the mplm back in the 793 00:39:18,150 --> 00:39:15,119 payload bay discovery 794 00:39:21,109 --> 00:39:18,160 in the previous day we are unversed mpln 795 00:39:23,190 --> 00:39:21,119 from the space station when we 796 00:39:26,950 --> 00:39:23,200 kept the mplm at the low hardware 797 00:39:30,230 --> 00:39:26,960 position and on friday 12 uh we versed 798 00:39:33,510 --> 00:39:30,240 and plm into the shadow of payroll bay 799 00:39:35,670 --> 00:39:33,520 so stephanie and i uh made a pair and to 800 00:39:37,829 --> 00:39:35,680 do the umbers and the birthing in the 801 00:39:39,990 --> 00:39:37,839 payroll day so this is a 802 00:39:42,630 --> 00:39:40,000 robotics working station in the u.s 803 00:39:45,750 --> 00:39:42,640 laboratory 804 00:39:47,990 --> 00:39:45,760 and the clearance between the mplm 805 00:39:50,630 --> 00:39:48,000 structure and the payload-based seal 806 00:39:53,990 --> 00:39:50,640 it's very tight only a couple inches 807 00:39:56,230 --> 00:39:54,000 so uh stephanie made a great job to you 808 00:39:57,430 --> 00:39:56,240 know steady control the hand controls 809 00:40:13,670 --> 00:39:57,440 and 810 00:40:16,870 --> 00:40:13,680 mplm into the payload bay 811 00:40:20,870 --> 00:40:16,880 then uh jim and dex and i put the perlis 812 00:40:22,390 --> 00:40:20,880 on which latches the mplm firmly into 813 00:40:24,710 --> 00:40:22,400 the palo bay 814 00:40:27,109 --> 00:40:24,720 later we spent the whole morning and 815 00:40:29,030 --> 00:40:27,119 doing our final thermal protection 816 00:40:31,270 --> 00:40:29,040 system scan 817 00:40:32,630 --> 00:40:31,280 and this was our starboard side which 818 00:40:34,950 --> 00:40:32,640 had the most 819 00:40:37,430 --> 00:40:34,960 tight clearances and it also took the 820 00:40:42,470 --> 00:40:39,910 well this is our first time uh executing 821 00:40:45,109 --> 00:40:42,480 the doc late inspection as a team and 822 00:40:47,349 --> 00:40:45,119 um it went really well thanks to the the 823 00:40:48,870 --> 00:40:47,359 larger team that helped us to prepare um 824 00:40:51,030 --> 00:40:48,880 it was pretty impressive to see some of 825 00:40:54,470 --> 00:40:51,040 the clearances which got down to as low 826 00:40:55,190 --> 00:40:54,480 as uh 19 inches for the shuttle arm to 827 00:40:57,270 --> 00:40:55,200 the 828 00:41:00,150 --> 00:40:57,280 gem structure but we had some great 829 00:41:02,150 --> 00:41:00,160 clearance views thanks to the spdm and 830 00:41:04,870 --> 00:41:02,160 the tip lee that were able to keep it 831 00:41:07,190 --> 00:41:04,880 clear we had decks down in the cupola a 832 00:41:09,990 --> 00:41:07,200 lot of the time helping us out and went 833 00:41:14,230 --> 00:41:11,750 and thanks to the combined work of the 834 00:41:16,230 --> 00:41:14,240 robotics teams and the photo tv teams 835 00:41:17,829 --> 00:41:16,240 and the 836 00:41:19,190 --> 00:41:17,839 folks who pv the procedure the 837 00:41:21,829 --> 00:41:19,200 operations went very well and very 838 00:41:22,630 --> 00:41:21,839 smoothly we were able to finish on time 839 00:41:24,150 --> 00:41:22,640 and 840 00:41:26,870 --> 00:41:24,160 here's 841 00:41:28,230 --> 00:41:26,880 some a view from the mid deck 842 00:41:31,270 --> 00:41:28,240 this is how we actually get between the 843 00:41:33,030 --> 00:41:31,280 mid deck and the flight deck 844 00:41:36,069 --> 00:41:33,040 since we were finished early we had some 845 00:41:37,109 --> 00:41:36,079 time to spend 846 00:41:38,950 --> 00:41:37,119 with our 847 00:41:40,950 --> 00:41:38,960 friends and the international space 848 00:41:43,349 --> 00:41:40,960 station crew also came over so we had 849 00:41:45,270 --> 00:41:43,359 some time to share with them so this is 850 00:41:52,790 --> 00:41:45,280 just a little bit of down time while 851 00:41:57,829 --> 00:41:55,670 and we have a cycle ergometer so a few 852 00:41:59,589 --> 00:41:57,839 of us had a chance to exercise and very 853 00:42:04,309 --> 00:41:59,599 important to keep our bones and 854 00:42:08,710 --> 00:42:07,030 this is uh clay goofing off with 855 00:42:10,230 --> 00:42:08,720 dottie and 856 00:42:12,230 --> 00:42:10,240 we're playing a little bit with the 857 00:42:14,950 --> 00:42:12,240 conservation of angular momentum and you 858 00:42:16,550 --> 00:42:14,960 see that as she pulls herself in tighter 859 00:42:18,309 --> 00:42:16,560 she spins faster and then when she 860 00:42:20,309 --> 00:42:18,319 spreads out she slows down it's just a 861 00:42:22,630 --> 00:42:20,319 great opportunity you really can't do 862 00:42:30,550 --> 00:42:22,640 this in the classroom on earth so we do 863 00:42:34,790 --> 00:42:32,550 and i think i'm getting ready for the 864 00:42:35,990 --> 00:42:34,800 olympics 865 00:42:39,109 --> 00:42:36,000 i'm not sure which one i'm going to go 866 00:42:41,670 --> 00:42:39,119 for winter i got the ice skating earlier 867 00:42:47,430 --> 00:42:41,680 and uh looks like he may be able to make 868 00:42:50,710 --> 00:42:49,030 it is great to have the crew get some 869 00:42:53,430 --> 00:42:50,720 down time after a 870 00:42:56,230 --> 00:42:53,440 long docked period and uh lots of hard 871 00:42:58,710 --> 00:42:56,240 work and uh got the document inspection 872 00:43:00,470 --> 00:42:58,720 done early and again we got to have some 873 00:43:03,670 --> 00:43:00,480 down time again these are some more mid 874 00:43:07,030 --> 00:43:05,270 and this is uh 875 00:43:09,109 --> 00:43:07,040 this is some activity that happens late 876 00:43:23,829 --> 00:43:09,119 in the day every day and we end up doing 877 00:43:28,550 --> 00:43:25,270 yeah one of the great things we get to 878 00:43:30,870 --> 00:43:28,560 do with our international space station 879 00:43:31,829 --> 00:43:30,880 uh comrades here is to have dinner with 880 00:43:33,510 --> 00:43:31,839 them every once in a while i think this 881 00:43:34,950 --> 00:43:33,520 was the third major meal that we shared 882 00:43:36,230 --> 00:43:34,960 with them and it's
