What is that black line across John's pumpkin suit? It looks like the photographer was using a guide of some sort in Photoshop and forgot to remove it from the photo. :laugh:

I know what you're probably thinking -it's too early!

It's strange because the STS-124 photo wasn't out long ago either! Now we have 4 crew photos for future flights (122, 123, 124 and 125)... :)

I really like it too!  :cool:

Yet another look-alike HST mission photo. Still, not bad!

Just looking at previous Hubble repair crew photos...STS-103, 109 and 125.
I noticed Grunsfeld is in the same position in all 3
Cdr. Altman the same for 109 and 125 as is Massamino in 109 and 125.
Also, the pilot is in the same position, as is the Flight Engineer.
Wonder if there's some superstition in the Astronaut Office?

I think its nice that all (available) orbiters will have been used to deploy and service the Hubble Space Telescope.

Definately. I'm really looking forward to it - less than 6 months time now!
