• Atlantis' motion has seemed to stop!  I'm going to say at this time, the bird is at the pad!  Woohoo!
  
  Images below are to show no motion within two minutes (picture 93 taken two minutes after picture 92).

• Yeah, I found myself staring at the screen and yelling, "Hit the brakes, hit the brakes NOW!!!"  
  
  Very nice rollout.  Looked perfect from here.  
  
  Next motion for Atlantis will be a little bit faster.

• Great coverage as always. Here's to a smooth pad flow.
  
  Just for record, first motion was at 4:43am and the vehicle was harddown at LC-39A at 11:51am EST.

  Who has the honors today, Hans or Franz?

  
  I'd like to know, too.

• It was Hans.

• Will the Columbus module have a camera like the Destiny lab?  If so, will they show it on Nasa's Iss coverage?

  I'm not sure that's related to 122 rollout or pad processing :> I think there's an ISS section precisely for these kinds of questions.

• What's new is on this ET for STS-122 that there is no footprint for the LH2 PAL ramp, the LO2 ramp print is easily seen.
  
  I noticed a cover over the OAA White Room. How does that cover get removed so the arm can be snug with the hatch?
