And Wheels is on the move, on his way to the MBSU stowed in Discovery.

Scott has finished his task in the starboard squib connector meanwhile.

Paolo made a call on the loop from Discovery to Discovery.
Doug: "Hope that call came thru" :)
In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice, but in practice, there is !

Scott is talking about some damage and discolloration... not sure where it is, though, my video is being naughty.

Going to the stowing position just at orbital sunset.

Parazynsky noting a small crease in one of his gloves, but nothing of significance.

Each array (P4, P6, S4, S6) has their own pumps & radiators.

Thanks. So all heat from the main part of the station only goes to the radiators on S1 and P1?

Correct.

They're done with Scott troubleshooting the camera's flash, and both EVAers should move on to the MBSU spare installation.

Scott going to leave the camara at the airlock, to free his movements.

Rather, at the airlock's toolbox.

It's amazing how large the station has become, in relation to the size of the spacewalkers.

Scott retrieving the foot restraint from Z1.

"A view you don't get every day" (referring to Z1 being free of P6!)

It's lunchtime for me :) so I'll leave my part of the coverage to anyone who's free to do it.

Getting ready for MBSU spare install on ESP3:

EDIT: Solar array deployment in P6 in 20 minutes... I'll miss it live :(
