Interior views not much for seeing the docking but they do give some insight into crew activities, mood and intensity.

I have ever thought, that the shuttle commander is sitting on his seat prior docking, I have now learned, that this was wrong.

That mean we are about 15 minutes behind the timeline? I thought docking was supposed to be at 1233 gmt?
