good afternoon to you from the Johnson

2
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:07,060
Space Center welcome to today's mission

3
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:08,650
status briefing as we take a look at

4
00:00:12,839 --> 00:00:11,650
sts-133 the crews are about to a safer

5
00:00:14,279 --> 00:00:12,849
well to each other here within the

6
00:00:16,410 --> 00:00:14,289
coming hours and here to give us an

7
00:00:18,450 --> 00:00:16,420
update on all that activity is the lead

8
00:00:20,519 --> 00:00:18,460
shuttle flight director Brian lang go

9
00:00:21,870 --> 00:00:20,529
ahead Brian Thank You Josh well good

10
00:00:23,939 --> 00:00:21,880
afternoon thank you for being here

11
00:00:25,409 --> 00:00:23,949
things are going very well in space

12
00:00:27,509 --> 00:00:25,419
today as y'all probably are well aware

13
00:00:28,650 --> 00:00:27,519
the vehicles are all doing great i'll

14
00:00:30,329 --> 00:00:28,660
talk a little bit more about that in a

15
00:00:32,609 --> 00:00:30,339
minute the mission as you know is going

16
00:00:34,650 --> 00:00:32,619
extremely well we've accomplished our

17
00:00:35,990 --> 00:00:34,660
two edas and all the tests associated

18
00:00:39,180 --> 00:00:36,000
with those and those went very well

19
00:00:41,370 --> 00:00:39,190
we've done our two installs of the pmm

20
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:41,380
and the ELC and that went very well so

21
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:43,570
all in all things are going great the

22
00:00:47,070 --> 00:00:45,010
cruzin a little bit of off duty right

23
00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:47,080
now getting prepped for hatch closing

24
00:00:52,230 --> 00:00:50,170
later today some specifics on the

25
00:00:55,860 --> 00:00:52,240
activities today the crew woke up about

26
00:00:57,540 --> 00:00:55,870
223 central Central Time the farewell

27
00:01:01,140 --> 00:00:57,550
ceremony and hatch closure will occur

28
00:01:04,530 --> 00:01:01,150
about 230-3 so about 12 hours later crew

29
00:01:06,300 --> 00:01:04,540
sleep is at 623 this evening the final

30
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:06,310
activities we got some final stowage

31
00:01:11,430 --> 00:01:09,010
items to take care of and just then just

32
00:01:13,110 --> 00:01:11,440
to get the hatch is closed tomorrow

33
00:01:15,690 --> 00:01:13,120
we're going to wake up crew wake is at

34
00:01:17,460 --> 00:01:15,700
same time 223 central we're going to

35
00:01:19,770 --> 00:01:17,470
plan for undock right around six a.m.

36
00:01:22,050 --> 00:01:19,780
central which is about six minutes prior

37
00:01:23,850 --> 00:01:22,060
to prior to orbital midnight we did move

38
00:01:26,340 --> 00:01:23,860
that a few minutes earlier than typical

39
00:01:29,399 --> 00:01:26,350
for some to ensure we had good calm with

40
00:01:31,140 --> 00:01:29,409
both vehicles step one will occur will

41
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:31,150
do a full lap fly around like we

42
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:33,130
typically do with the shuttle and step

43
00:01:36,180 --> 00:01:34,810
one will occur on the + B bar it's about

44
00:01:38,550 --> 00:01:36,190
a one and a half foot per second burn

45
00:01:40,380 --> 00:01:38,560
set to we're going to do as a retrograde

46
00:01:42,690 --> 00:01:40,390
burn it'll be about a three foot per

47
00:01:44,940 --> 00:01:42,700
second and this is a setup orbital just

48
00:01:46,500 --> 00:01:44,950
burns that are injured flight director

49
00:01:49,110 --> 00:01:46,510
Tony ciccotti has been coordinating with

50
00:01:51,719 --> 00:01:49,120
his team we will begin our late

51
00:01:53,250 --> 00:01:51,729
inspection about 1048 central time when

52
00:01:56,340 --> 00:01:53,260
we'll wrap that up about five hours

53
00:01:59,940 --> 00:01:56,350
later at 348 Central times with the crew

54
00:02:01,770 --> 00:01:59,950
sleep about 623 tomorrow night discovery

55
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:01,780
in our systems continue just to perform

56
00:02:07,350 --> 00:02:04,930
flawlessly she is doing great systems

57
00:02:08,999 --> 00:02:07,360
wise the discoveries just in great shape

58
00:02:12,179 --> 00:02:09,009
and we're really pleased with all that

59
00:02:14,190 --> 00:02:12,189
obviously ISS is in great shape we hung

60
00:02:14,430 --> 00:02:14,200
around an extra day as you well know to

61
00:02:16,020 --> 00:02:14,440
spin

62
00:02:18,270 --> 00:02:16,030
some time getting the pmm outfitted to

63
00:02:19,710 --> 00:02:18,280
get the HTV packed up and just to help

64
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:19,720
out the increment cruise which we have

65
00:02:24,450 --> 00:02:22,570
done and the cruise the extra six bodies

66
00:02:26,850 --> 00:02:24,460
on board for an extra day they are able

67
00:02:28,770 --> 00:02:26,860
to get through a great deal of extra

68
00:02:31,170 --> 00:02:28,780
work for the increment stage crew and

69
00:02:32,220 --> 00:02:31,180
now they're looking ahead thinking

70
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:32,230
things are going to look really good in

71
00:02:37,290 --> 00:02:35,050
the increment stage folks going to be

72
00:02:40,170 --> 00:02:37,300
really good shape to get on with the

73
00:02:42,210 --> 00:02:40,180
rest of the activities prior to 24 s

74
00:02:44,100 --> 00:02:42,220
departure than hdv departure and a

75
00:02:47,250 --> 00:02:44,110
number of more activities coming in and

76
00:02:48,330 --> 00:02:47,260
marcher transfer numbers I thought I'd

77
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:48,340
bring you some numbers because I know

78
00:02:52,650 --> 00:02:50,410
you guys like to write all those down of

79
00:02:55,350 --> 00:02:52,660
course the pmm came in at 21 thousand

80
00:02:57,630 --> 00:02:55,360
eight hundred and seventeen pounds the

81
00:02:58,860 --> 00:02:57,640
Express logistics carrier number four of

82
00:03:03,450 --> 00:02:58,870
course we installed that on flight day

83
00:03:05,870 --> 00:03:03,460
three was 7611 pounds the shuttle

84
00:03:09,270 --> 00:03:05,880
mid-deck dice escargot we transferred

85
00:03:11,820 --> 00:03:09,280
2031 pounds and then back on the shuttle

86
00:03:14,070 --> 00:03:11,830
from ISS we transfer in two thousand

87
00:03:15,390 --> 00:03:14,080
five hundred ninety nine pounds we'll

88
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:15,400
look for an extra pound of color and

89
00:03:22,050 --> 00:03:19,209
even 2600 supply water we were able to

90
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:22,060
transfer 853 pounds on the station in

91
00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:25,450
various ways we also provide them with

92
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:28,510
78 pounds of compensate and a couple of

93
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:31,930
bags on the gases for nitrogen we put a

94
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:36,010
total of 120 excuse me 112 pounds on to

95
00:03:41,430 --> 00:03:38,770
ISS 28 of which went into the tanks

96
00:03:43,009 --> 00:03:41,440
another 84 we pushed into the stack just

97
00:03:45,990 --> 00:03:43,019
to help out with overall cabin pressure

98
00:03:49,590 --> 00:03:46,000
for oxygen current numbers were tallied

99
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:49,600
up to 182 pounds total that's 110 pounds

100
00:03:54,990 --> 00:03:52,090
into the ISS tanks and 72 pounds into

101
00:03:56,970 --> 00:03:55,000
the stack and we pushed as much o2 as we

102
00:03:59,699 --> 00:03:56,980
could into the vehicle and ISS is in

103
00:04:02,550 --> 00:03:59,709
great shape from an oxygen standpoint we

104
00:04:06,420 --> 00:04:02,560
also did for the plan take 6 ice lithium

105
00:04:08,190 --> 00:04:06,430
hydroxide cans from the ISS stockpile

106
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:08,200
for carbon dioxide removal on board

107
00:04:12,570 --> 00:04:09,970
shuttle and that was our pre-flight plan

108
00:04:13,860 --> 00:04:12,580
so there's no surprise than that but

109
00:04:15,780 --> 00:04:13,870
all-in-all again the missions going

110
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:15,790
extremely well the crews get a little

111
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:17,410
bit of well-deserved rest right now with

112
00:04:21,270 --> 00:04:19,570
off-duty and they are preparing for

113
00:04:23,730 --> 00:04:21,280
tomorrow's undock activities and in

114
00:04:25,500 --> 00:04:23,740
their late inspection then the Mao n

115
00:04:27,300 --> 00:04:25,510
minus one timeline in the orbit on the

116
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:27,310
following day so we're getting sort of

117
00:04:29,130 --> 00:04:27,850
back into

118
00:04:30,860 --> 00:04:29,140
regular routine for a shell in flight

119
00:04:33,540 --> 00:04:30,870
for undock and what happens thereafter

120
00:04:35,610 --> 00:04:33,550
so the cello crew is doing great the

121
00:04:37,740 --> 00:04:35,620
station crew is doing great the vehicles

122
00:04:38,940 --> 00:04:37,750
are in great shape and all in all we

123
00:04:41,820 --> 00:04:38,950
couldn't be more pleased with how this

124
00:04:43,710 --> 00:04:41,830
mission is going I think that's all I

125
00:04:44,970 --> 00:04:43,720
got if I got any questions okay we'll

126
00:04:48,330 --> 00:04:44,980
take some questions from here at JSC

127
00:04:50,820 --> 00:04:48,340
first sorry Phillip Phillips lost with

128
00:04:52,950 --> 00:04:50,830
NASA Space Flight com could you talk a

129
00:04:54,270 --> 00:04:52,960
bit about I know you discover his

130
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:54,280
performance was worried but could just

131
00:04:57,930 --> 00:04:55,450
elaborate on that a little time and

132
00:04:59,390 --> 00:04:57,940
she's she's done really well and it's

133
00:05:02,130 --> 00:04:59,400
almost things like she's a brand new car

134
00:05:04,260 --> 00:05:02,140
boy she's operating well it's a

135
00:05:05,550 --> 00:05:04,270
testament to the folks at came to see

136
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:05,560
the ground up folks who take care of

137
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:08,890
discovering the other two birds when I

138
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:10,330
say she's doing great there's no system

139
00:05:14,820 --> 00:05:12,730
problems if we've looked at usually when

140
00:05:16,830 --> 00:05:14,830
we fly we lose a do sir we lose a system

141
00:05:19,650 --> 00:05:16,840
or not usually but sometimes we do and

142
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:19,660
in this case discoveries had no issues

143
00:05:22,830 --> 00:05:21,250
knock on wood we're not on the ground

144
00:05:25,620 --> 00:05:22,840
yet but so far she's performed perfectly

145
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:25,630
there are no issues to talk about from

146
00:05:31,470 --> 00:05:29,410
our side so it's a testament to the

147
00:05:33,210 --> 00:05:31,480
folks at KSC is doing a great job with

148
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:33,220
the vehicle I would also add it's a

149
00:05:36,510 --> 00:05:34,510
testament the fact we've been flying

150
00:05:38,190 --> 00:05:36,520
these shuttles for a while we know how

151
00:05:39,540 --> 00:05:38,200
to take care of them we know we've we've

152
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:39,550
gone and fixed the little things that

153
00:05:44,030 --> 00:05:42,130
maybe were troublesome and she's in

154
00:05:53,790 --> 00:05:44,040
great shape to take the crew home on

155
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:53,800
Wednesday Robert hi Robert Perlman with

156
00:05:58,950 --> 00:05:57,610
collectspace.com can you just go over

157
00:06:01,590 --> 00:05:58,960
what the what the shell crew will be

158
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:01,600
doing between crew hatch and crew hatch

159
00:06:08,100 --> 00:06:05,170
closure and and sleep tonight the four

160
00:06:09,630 --> 00:06:08,110
hours or so they have between them okay

161
00:06:11,610 --> 00:06:09,640
sure the timeline for this evening after

162
00:06:14,340 --> 00:06:11,620
we close the hatch there's not a whole

163
00:06:16,110 --> 00:06:14,350
lot on that side in terms of big items

164
00:06:17,850 --> 00:06:16,120
they get the hatch closed they get the

165
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:17,860
the airlock and all that bundled up and

166
00:06:22,770 --> 00:06:20,770
repacked from all the ISS act to

167
00:06:23,940 --> 00:06:22,780
transfer stuff we brought in that's

168
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:23,950
probably one of the biggest things just

169
00:06:27,630 --> 00:06:25,330
make sure the mid-deck stowage is all

170
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:27,640
shipshape they will do probably a little

171
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:30,010
study and prep for tomorrow and then

172
00:06:32,730 --> 00:06:31,450
they'll do their regular pre-sleep

173
00:06:34,950 --> 00:06:32,740
activities where they confirm the

174
00:06:36,659 --> 00:06:34,960
vehicle for sleep they'll also eat their

175
00:06:38,940 --> 00:06:36,669
dinner and things like that but in

176
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:38,950
general it's just a standard evening if

177
00:06:41,670 --> 00:06:40,690
you will in the shuttle with no big

178
00:06:45,749 --> 00:06:41,680
ticket items just getting

179
00:06:47,879 --> 00:06:45,759
prep for tomorrow's undocking and I

180
00:06:50,010 --> 00:06:47,889
realize it's it's very early but has

181
00:06:57,719 --> 00:06:50,020
there been any advance word on whether

182
00:06:59,159 --> 00:06:57,729
for landing you're funny well of course

183
00:07:00,719 --> 00:06:59,169
we've looked at forecast for several

184
00:07:03,540 --> 00:07:00,729
days now and forecast for Monday

185
00:07:04,710 --> 00:07:03,550
Wednesday all look pretty good but it's

186
00:07:08,010 --> 00:07:04,720
Florida weather which is always

187
00:07:09,930 --> 00:07:08,020
entertaining we will look at it continue

188
00:07:11,670 --> 00:07:09,940

time for the door burn that tone ian is

190
00:07:17,129 --> 00:07:14,050

and as far as I know right now the

192
00:07:25,529 --> 00:07:18,820
weather forecast is very favorable for

193
00:07:27,990 --> 00:07:25,539

202
00:07:47,310 --> 00:07:45,130
vehicle the extra volume inside they've

203
00:07:49,110 --> 00:07:47,320

stowage they got to take care of but

207
00:07:58,500 --> 00:07:55,090
general they're related that everything

208
00:08:00,510 --> 00:07:58,510
has gone so well their systems are all

209
00:08:01,860 --> 00:08:00,520
behaving very well and on the station

210
00:08:04,409 --> 00:08:01,870
side things are going well on the

211
00:08:06,060 --> 00:08:04,419
shuttle side folks are we still got

212
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:06,070
several days we've got the sort of the

213
00:08:11,129 --> 00:08:08,490
nominal four days in front of us for I

214
00:08:13,290 --> 00:08:11,139
count that right undock and then an

215
00:08:15,689 --> 00:08:13,300

217
00:08:19,589 --> 00:08:17,409
station side we're still I'm sorry on

218
00:08:21,570 --> 00:08:19,599
the shuttle side we're still kind of

219
00:08:23,550 --> 00:08:21,580
press and headed waiting for our nominal

220
00:08:27,450 --> 00:08:23,560
activities to transpire and getting

221
00:08:30,390 --> 00:08:27,460
ready for landing okay anymore from here

222
00:08:33,420 --> 00:08:30,400
are you let's go to the phone lines see

223
00:08:36,329 --> 00:08:33,430
we've got marker oh hey thanks I just

224
00:08:38,159 --> 00:08:36,339
wondered what your cryo markets look

225
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:38,169
like now I know you have the plus to

226
00:08:42,719 --> 00:08:39,610
whether it's what if you have anything

227
00:08:45,329 --> 00:08:42,729
beyond that you know sure mark

228
00:08:48,540 --> 00:08:45,339
transferred a lot of 02 / an ISS like we

229
00:08:50,430 --> 00:08:48,550
said we did didn't put it all into their

230
00:08:52,470 --> 00:08:50,440
onto their side we do still have a

231
00:08:54,930 --> 00:08:52,480
little bit of margin above the two days

232
00:08:55,300 --> 00:08:54,940
we have it's about three hours worth if

233
00:08:57,250 --> 00:08:55,310
you think

234
00:08:59,590 --> 00:08:57,260
in terms of cry or about 30 pounds of

235
00:09:01,690 --> 00:08:59,600
oxygen so we have a little bit of margin

236
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:01,700
on our side still to support but

237
00:09:06,910 --> 00:09:03,890
obviously we don't anticipate staying up

238
00:09:09,190 --> 00:09:06,920
that late on Friday so it won't be any

239
00:09:14,560 --> 00:09:09,200
issue for us but we have it there if we

240
00:09:16,750 --> 00:09:14,570
need it okay okay Marcia Dunn yeah hi

241
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:16,760
I'm just wondering Brian do you think

242
00:09:21,190 --> 00:09:18,290
it'll be an emotional moment for you

243
00:09:26,100 --> 00:09:21,200
when the shuttle and ducks tomorrow and

244
00:09:29,350 --> 00:09:26,110
every space station for the last time I

245
00:09:30,340 --> 00:09:29,360
see emotional moment for me you got cut

246
00:09:31,990 --> 00:09:30,350
out a little bit there but when

247
00:09:34,750 --> 00:09:32,000
discovery on docs and lead station for

248
00:09:36,790 --> 00:09:34,760
the last time not so much at that point

249
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:36,800
for me just because we'll be focused on

250
00:09:41,019 --> 00:09:39,170
helping the crew do the fly about fly

251
00:09:43,510 --> 00:09:41,029
around getting those things mixed up now

252
00:09:45,820 --> 00:09:43,520
myself the shuttle do the fly around and

253
00:09:47,410 --> 00:09:45,830
then we'll be jumping right into late

254
00:09:50,050 --> 00:09:47,420
inspection with the RMS activities and

255
00:09:51,670 --> 00:09:50,060
all that so for us on consulates it's

256
00:09:53,110 --> 00:09:51,680
stick with the business take care of the

257
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:53,120
crew take care of the vehicle make sure

258
00:09:57,490 --> 00:09:55,610
everything's going well the emotion may

259
00:09:59,290 --> 00:09:57,500
kick in later after we unplug for our

260
00:10:01,270 --> 00:09:59,300
last shift the orbit one ship the last

261
00:10:02,710 --> 00:10:01,280
time are on console is tomorrow and then

262
00:10:04,810 --> 00:10:02,720
the entry team takes over during that

263
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:04,820
time period so tomorrow will be my last

264
00:10:09,700 --> 00:10:07,850
shift and afterwards perhaps a lil

265
00:10:10,930 --> 00:10:09,710
emotional but for the most part will

266
00:10:13,090 --> 00:10:10,940
just be excited that the mission has

267
00:10:23,460 --> 00:10:13,100
