Going for port SARJ inspection. Verifying DLA is locked. Selected cover to remove is number 12. What will we find today? :O

One of the "Unscrewing the panels on SARJ" fans:

Six fasteners are holding the panel in place. Nine rotations should remove the "screws" - though apparently one came out after just four. Hoping that's not been loosened by vibration!

What about 2 reamining radiators on P1 truss? Yesterday were deployed both (1 & 3) on S1...

Not until the Stage EVAs once Harmony is relocated.

I wonder why they need to release the capture clamp?

because they want the 4 bolts in the corners to carry the load, not the capture claw.

now a couple from me: is the cooling loop on P6 completely separate from the rest of the station? I don't think they are doing any fluid connections but reinstallation is complete.

Also, how have they picked thermal cover 12 to check under? Is it completely random or do they suspect some damage under it? This could indicate if the damage is localized there or evenly spread throughout.
