Inspection time for Discovery.

Below are two screenshots of the less expanded part of the 213 page STS-116 Flight Plan on L2, showing the tasks of the day for each of the crew and the mission.

The crew has been waken up now. The song used for today's wake up call is "Here Comes the Sun" by the Beatles.

Beautiful city lights as seen from Discovery... in the video they look more impressive but I got some screencaps nontheless...

Those are Iranian and Arabian cities, according to the maps shown by MCC.

Seems like they're working an issue with one of Discovery's Flash Evaporator System units.

I'll keep an eye out for a MER Problem report on that. Might be references in the upcoming MMT presentations.

Am I right in thinking that we are at MET just over 16hrs?

They are noting the issues as 'minor'

"We can certainly work with it" - was the note in regards to the loss of RMS End Effector Auto Release Capability - on the MER problem list.

50 mins to the next OMS burn (both engines).
