Is it normal that they wrap kapton around the gloves joints?
I never followed suit up very closely before

Thrown this article together, 50/50 with Atlantis rollover in a few hours.

Doesn't read like it was "thrown together".  A very good article, Chris (not that there are ever bad ones...).

Not long.  They are just repressurizing to cabin pressure to allow Peggy, Yuri, and Paolo back in to assist the spacewalkers.  But I'm no authority on the airlock procedures, so maybe someone else can add to that.

I could be wrong, but did Peggy just give a kiss on Scott's helmet?

Could be a check of the helmet too, I guess I am getting too excited and start seeing things ;)

Just for folks just waking up / catching up.. No Execute Package posted yet (Public or L2) I'm watching for it.. As soon as it's up I hope to help with KU prediction unless sts1canada is online

(EDIT: L2 doesn't do Exec Packages, as L2 is 100 percent content that is not available elsewhere - Chris.)
