Looked like all 6 of them got off.

You see Paolo out there?

Yeah, I was wondering if she knows some of those folks from being out there as a Cape Crusader in years past...

I'm counting Pambo, Zambo, Scott, Stephanie and Doug. The others were Steve Lindsey, Ellen Ochoa and Jerry Ross. Looks like Paolo elected to stay behind with Clay

While we are waiting for the press interview,  what roles Steve Lindsey, Ellen Ochoa and Jerry Ross do for the crew?
It's Tony De La Rosa, ...I don't create this stuff, I just report it.

They are all management astronauts; you can find semi-current bios here:

Lindsey is chief of the astronaut office and flew the STA for the weather recon today. Ochoa is Director of Flight Crew Operations, however I don't remember what Ross' position is, but he has been down at the Cape for some time now. I've seen him during several of the last flights

Wow, Scott looks like he's only, oh, a meter or so taller than Pam!

Grumbles. Good speech though and still praise for the orbiter and the engineers, so we'll let her off ;)

any word on when the post landing press briefing will be? I thought it was landing plus 2 hours, but will obviously be a few minutes yet with the briefers at the slf

Nevermind, they just answered my question

The upper management folks have to get over to the press site area from the SLF, but George Diller said the post landing press briefing would be soon...
