Questions.

Philip on 02.

A) Topped up the Station tanks 17lbs. Internal 278 lbs.

On STORMM:

A) Couple of degrees pitched down allows for STORMM initial acquisition. Station agreed to allow for this (was a longer answer.

Robert on execute package.

A) Seen something a little big off nominal with ATV. 10 mins out of the flyaround to get imagery.

On docking camera:

A) Added activity for data recorder on FD13. At this point it looks likely won't be able to record, as much as we got great data on RDNZ. Whatever we get will be enough from this mission.

Denise on STORMM - anything to be added for Orion.

A) No, STORMM has proven the sensor can lock on, enough for prox ops. That was the biggest thing to prove (lock on from 5km).

On Endeavour:

A) Been focusing on the long, complex mission. It'll really hit home when Endeavour is sat on the runway. She's performed flawlessly, sad to see her retire, but couldn't think of a better mission for her to have her last flight (Chris likes that).

Question on Reboost:

A) Vehicles coming and going on a regular basis. Long term perspective. ATV there another month. Had a plan to manage altitude. Accepted a little bit of reboost from shuttle. Nothing unique.

On STORMM for asteriod sample return.

A) Received some e-mails from that group. Will have to wait until after the mission. But if you approached something with no reflective surfaces, VNS could paint it. Working with Goddard on another VNS.

On Crew/STORMM.

A) Box will be controlling Endeavour. Sep 1 - Mark will be conducting the STORMM manuevers.

On STORMM commercial:

A) Very valid for any space vehicle.

On Cost:

A) Orion Project paid for a lot. Lockheed bought it, leased it to NASA. 10s of millions in cost. Unit itself is less than $2m. Preps under $10m.

Fair play to everyone who was up for that! 4am is tough!

For once you have tasted Concorde you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return.

Faire du ciel le plus bel endroit de la terre c'est impossible sans Concorde
