Would someone please describe this point of view? Is the camera on the platform outside Kibo?

It looks to be out by the truss. The platform outside Kibo (JEF) is on the far right of the screen (visible)

Guys, thanks a lot for the coverage.  I wanted really badly to see this, and it finally happened just after I stepped away.  NSF to the rescue, as usual!

ISS Live app shows this camera as 'P1 Lower Outboard'.

I'm always amazed to see the high intensity particles hitting the camera's sensors...quite the radiation zone, even for LEO!

Fellas (and ladies) ... could anyone provide a link to NASA's website where they post pictures (hi res)? I've seen a link somewhere in these threads, but finding it now is going to be quite difficult!! I have Andre Kuipers' flickr page (awesome pics), but looking for NASA's too!

(http://www.flickr.com/photos/astro_andre/)

Thanks, and awesome info these last few days... what WILL I do after a (hopeful) successful EOM?!?

In daylight now. Dextre just hanging out, job done. Likely a slower translation back due to it being ground control.

Nick. Nothing since flyunder has been uploaded in hi res due to the long weekend. We know, as we're going to grab every single photo in hi res for L2, like we did for Shuttle (NASA.gov would pick and choose about 10, we'd have massive dumps of hundreds :D) and like the 300+mb of flyunder for this mission.

ISS guys have looked, so I know this is still the case.
