00:01:46,389 --> 00:01:43,200
thank you for your 12 doc missions to

37
00:01:48,870 --> 00:01:46,399
the iss and for capping off 37 space

38
00:01:50,870 --> 00:01:48,880
shuttle missions to construct

39
00:01:52,230 --> 00:01:50,880
orbiting research facility

40
00:01:54,469 --> 00:01:52,240
we'll miss you guys

we appreciate your hospitality again

46
00:02:08,949 --> 00:02:07,200
hey what a great uh when a generation

47
00:02:10,710 --> 00:02:08,959
could accomplish is a great thing it's

48
00:02:13,830 --> 00:02:10,720
got a right to stand back and for just a

49
00:02:15,510 --> 00:02:13,840
moment admire and take pride in its work

50
00:02:16,949 --> 00:02:15,520
from our unique vantage point right here

51
00:02:18,390 --> 00:02:16,959
perched above the earth we can see the

52
00:02:20,390 --> 00:02:18,400
international space station is a

53
00:02:22,229 --> 00:02:20,400
wonderful accomplishment he's born at

54
00:02:25,030 --> 00:02:22,239
the end of the cold war it's enabled

55
00:02:26,869 --> 00:02:25,040
many nations to speak one in space

56
00:02:28,550 --> 00:02:26,879
as the iss now enters the era of

57
00:02:31,110 --> 00:02:28,560
utilization we'll never forget the role

58
00:02:33,110 --> 00:02:31,120
the space shuttle played in its creation

59
00:02:34,790 --> 00:02:33,120
like a proud parent we anticipate great

60
00:02:36,949 --> 00:02:34,800
things to follow from the men and women

61
00:02:38,390 --> 00:02:36,959
who build operate and live there

62
00:02:40,470 --> 00:02:38,400
from this unique vantage point we can

63
00:02:44,869 --> 00:02:40,480
see a great thing has been accomplished

64
00:02:48,229 --> 00:02:47,350
a few minutes after atlantis reaches the

65
00:02:49,830 --> 00:02:48,239
point

66
00:02:51,509 --> 00:02:49,840
600 feet directly in front of the

67
00:02:53,670 --> 00:02:51,519
station the international space station

68
00:02:55,509 --> 00:02:53,680
will begin a yaw maneuver of 90 degrees

69
00:02:56,630 --> 00:02:55,519
under the control of russian segment

70
00:02:58,949 --> 00:02:56,640
thrusters

71
00:03:01,430 --> 00:02:58,959
that yaw maneuver will occur while

72
00:03:03,270 --> 00:03:01,440
atlantis is in a period of about 27

73
00:03:05,030 --> 00:03:03,280
minutes of station keeping directly in

74
00:03:07,910 --> 00:03:05,040
front of the complex

75
00:03:10,869 --> 00:03:07,920
once the station has yawed to the proper

76
00:03:13,030 --> 00:03:10,879
orientation doug hurley will begin a 600

77
00:03:15,270 --> 00:03:13,040
foot radial fly around of a half lap

78
00:03:16,710 --> 00:03:15,280
around the complex while magnus and

79
00:03:19,030 --> 00:03:16,720
walheim use

80
00:03:21,430 --> 00:03:19,040
digital cameras with high-powered lenses

81
00:03:23,670 --> 00:03:21,440
to snap away collecting imagery of the

82
00:03:27,350 --> 00:03:23,680
longitudinal axis of the station its

83
00:03:30,630 --> 00:03:29,030
in station atlantis you'll be happy to

84
00:03:33,270 --> 00:03:30,640
know you look just as good from the side

85
00:03:35,030 --> 00:03:33,280
as you do from the front

86
00:03:37,910 --> 00:03:35,040
thanks bertie not sure how to answer

87
00:03:39,750 --> 00:03:37,920
that one but thanks

88
00:03:41,190 --> 00:03:39,760
almost directly above the international

89
00:03:43,670 --> 00:03:41,200
space station

90
00:03:46,229 --> 00:03:43,680
you can see uh the varying views the

91
00:03:49,430 --> 00:03:46,239
solar arrays that are angled through the

92
00:03:51,670 --> 00:03:49,440
beta gimbal assemblies to optimize

93
00:03:54,550 --> 00:03:51,680
solar array

94
00:03:57,429 --> 00:03:54,560
absorption of sunlight to be converted

95
00:03:59,589 --> 00:03:57,439
into electricity on the far right of the

96
00:04:01,990 --> 00:03:59,599
axis of the space station

97
00:04:04,390 --> 00:04:02,000
that is the harmony module

98
00:04:06,149 --> 00:04:04,400
in the horizontal position basically as

99
00:04:08,470 --> 00:04:06,159
you look at this view that's where

100
00:04:10,470 --> 00:04:08,480
atlantis was docked to and on either

101
00:04:12,789 --> 00:04:10,480
side those two large modules at the

102
00:04:15,429 --> 00:04:12,799
bottom is the european space agency's

103
00:04:17,030 --> 00:04:15,439
columbus laboratory and on the top of

104
00:04:19,349 --> 00:04:17,040
harmony as you look at this view from

105
00:04:21,509 --> 00:04:19,359
directly above the space station

106
00:04:25,030 --> 00:04:21,519
is the large japanese segment of the

107
00:04:30,390 --> 00:04:25,040
complex the kibo module and its external

108
00:04:34,469 --> 00:04:32,629
and uh iss atlantis on the big loop uh

109
00:04:36,230 --> 00:04:34,479
we're essentially complete with our fly

110
00:04:37,830 --> 00:04:36,240
around uh we'll be uh coming out

111
00:04:39,749 --> 00:04:37,840
underneath you and i should have a good

112
00:04:41,189 --> 00:04:39,759
view from the cupola i'm not sure when

113
00:04:42,870 --> 00:04:41,199
we're gonna break down the big loop but

114
00:04:45,270 --> 00:04:42,880
uh if it's anytime soon we just wanted

115
00:04:46,790 --> 00:04:45,280

have done for us up here we really

123
00:05:04,629 --> 00:05:02,629
hey fergie from the ulf 7 orbit 1 team

124
00:05:06,070 --> 00:05:04,639
in the iss mission control room here in

125
00:05:07,909 --> 00:05:06,080
houston we just want to let you know

126
00:05:09,909 --> 00:05:07,919
that it's been our pleasure and honor to

127
00:05:11,990 --> 00:05:09,919
support this the 37th mission of the

128
00:05:13,909 --> 00:05:12,000
space shuttle to the iss

129
00:05:15,749 --> 00:05:13,919
and we're proud to be the last in a

130
00:05:17,749 --> 00:05:15,759
countless line of mission control teams

131
00:05:20,870 --> 00:05:17,759
that have had the honor to watch over

132
00:05:22,790 --> 00:05:20,880
the iss while discovery and endeavor and

133
00:05:24,870 --> 00:05:22,800
atlantis have visited over the last 13

134
00:05:26,710 --> 00:05:24,880
years from this room we've watched and

135
00:05:28,150 --> 00:05:26,720
supported as the shuttle has enabled the

136
00:05:30,230 --> 00:05:28,160
station to grow from

137
00:05:32,390 --> 00:05:30,240
a humble single module that was grappled

138
00:05:34,550 --> 00:05:32,400
by the shuttle's arm to a stunning

139
00:05:36,629 --> 00:05:34,560
facility that is so large that some

140
00:05:38,870 --> 00:05:36,639
astronauts have even momentarily gotten

141
00:05:39,749 --> 00:05:38,880
lost in it you can you can take it from

142
00:05:42,150 --> 00:05:39,759
me

143
00:05:44,150 --> 00:05:42,160
so of course the iss wouldn't be here

144
00:05:45,909 --> 00:05:44,160
without the space shuttle so while we

145
00:05:48,390 --> 00:05:45,919
have the communication link up for the

146
00:05:50,790 --> 00:05:48,400
last time we wanted to say thank you and

147
00:05:53,110 --> 00:05:50,800
farewell to the magnificent machines

148
00:05:55,909 --> 00:05:53,120
that delivered assembled and staffed our

149
00:05:58,629 --> 00:05:55,919
world-class laboratory in space

150
00:06:00,870 --> 00:05:58,639
so fergie chunky sandy and rex get her
