Looks like a shift change in MCC. Either that or everyone has a good BBQ to go to

Help!! I´m feeling spatially challenged. This the crew beginning the day´s outfitting tasks. Just so I don´t spend the rest of the day wondering which way is up, my theory is that this is harmony, looking into the PMA with the nose of the orbiter pointing up and Columbus off to the right where Peggy is facing.

Yes, you are right
this is a view of Columbus from yesterday, I use the + shape on the far end (starboard end wall) to help recognise Columbus. The Harmony view (in the forward direction with nadir at the bottom of the image) )shows PMA2 with its passageway dipping dipping down

Praise by the crew for the GC who has been on console since STS-1.
I didn't get all of it unfortunately..

Thanks. I just half heard something about someone who has been involved with every shuttle flight since STS 1. I didn´t get the name or much of the detail but it sounds like something which should be acknowledged here if anyone has the proper information.

It was Steve Frick talking about Mike Marsh, the GC (ground controller) on console this morning.
I can't take screenshots, but based on the camera views in the MCC I think Marsh spent 30 seconds or so on screen. I don't know details of his tenure, but it sounds remarkable – almost 27 years.

Reboost burn has started, scheduled to last for 36 minutes to provide more FD3 opportunities for STS-123 and Exp 17 Soyuz.

Note the radioactive arrays
These are engineering views of the most fragile parts of the Station (SAWs and PVRs) during reboost.

The firing has been completed successfully a few minutes ago. Next planned reboost is on February 28th.

Fantastic engineering views just then. Thanks for capturing them.

First question: "Are you doomed??" :laugh:
More appropiately, "do you have any concerns about the military shooting down the satellite when you're out there?" Peggy answered something hilarious I didn't quite catch...
Tani saying he's looking forward to returning to Earth because he wants to spit the toothpaste instead of swallowing it

"I was wondering if you ate all the sweets and candy you had manifested in your menus?" (Birthdays and so on was the cause for this, and also "having a bit of fun around")
Love hasn't been able to see a single star (being an astronomer) because of the hard work and the little time to stop during a night pass, turn off the lights and look towards space.
