They're part of the Advanced Space Vision System.
Thanks! I thought they looked like targets.

I always wondered what this gray thing is, is it a grapple fixture point?

No. It's one of the four trunnion pins on P6. The grey object is the scuffplate.

Missed what Paolo said, but there was a humorous response of "We still get paid?" back.

This due to entering the ZOE. Other than the usual ZOE KU loss, KU has been pretty solid for this EVA.

I wonder if the station KU will be better from now on, because the P6 is no more on top of Z1 and the Ku antenna can position itself  more freely?
In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice, but in practice, there is !
