I can't tell from the dialog.. Are they joking about resting in the airlock for some extended period of time or is one of the EVA crew overly tired?

If they have enough O2, I wouldn't be surprised if they rested for a bit. -

EVA is now at 6 hours PET, the NTA tank removal preps are still planned for this EVA before it concludes.

Columbus being moved over the starboard sill of the payload bay. Easy-does-it does it best!

If they have enough O2, I wouldn't be surprised if they rested for a bit.I think they have to keep an eye on CO2 scrubbers too, although I don't think they're a determining factor. I agree they'll probably get some extended rest if they're to take at least one more hour than they were supposed to.

Looks like we're out of KU for now.
Yes we have moved out of direct line of sight to TDRS-West, East takes over completely in 7 minutes, however I am not optimistic we will get great (or any KU) through East due to the complex's direction right now. 15 minutes to sunset, 42 minutes to the ZOE.

For sure. Hopefully we'll get KU back soon (that assumes we lost it). Going by what I'm seeing in the graphics, the view should be pretty amazing. -

KU is back thanks to TDRS-East (thanks Richard
). Shot looks excellent.

So they're postponing the Nitrogen tank setup and going with that S0 Payload stowage bracket install instead?

No problem Nathan
9 minutes to sunset, complex passing over Quebec, 36 minutes to the ZOE, should have about 20 - 25 minutes of KU available during this pass, however I expect it to be spotty

Heading into orbital night. Are they halting the move until they're back in daylight?

Rex will go and loosen the connectors of the NTA to be replaced on EVA #2, the N2 lines & electrical connectors will be removed later, Stan will take a well deserved break and stay near or in the airlock while Rex does these tasks.
EVA #1 PET 6 hours 15 minutes, 28 minutes to the ZOE, 1 minute to sunset.

Today's MSB (mission status briefing) will be held 90 minutes after the end of EVA #1, there will be NO MMT briefing with John Shannon today.

Can't say I blame him Columbus' back end has been rotated 'up' in relation to the aft end of Atlantis.
). Shot looks excellent.
