3 minutes to East handover (this means that all KU video will be through TDRS East until the ZOE (an area over the Indian Ocean where neither TDRS East or West can cover, but there is a third TDRS over this area TDRS-Z that SOMETIMES provides KU (video coverage).

The quality of the pictures seem to be a lot sharper from the helment cameras.

Final proceedure to release the OBSS..

siegfriedcqb · « **Reply #131 on:** 06/03/2008 05:19 pm »

OBSS ok without power for about an hour as per PAO

sts1canada · « **Reply #132 on:** 06/03/2008 05:20 pm »

The SSRMS is now moving the OBSS slightly to allow access to the KAD (keep alive device) by the EVAers so the OBSS can be removed from S1

26 minutes to the ZOE and 26 minutes to sunset on this pass, may start to lose KU in about 20 minutes as we move out of range of East, may have a good KU pass through the ZOE through the shuttle KU on this pass, we'll see...

Looks like Garan was having a hard time using only one hand..

Ron told to keep the bag with him: "Well, if I have to" (meaning "I don't want to"). Ken saying it's his call.

Text based updates from me only, got audio only while at school.

Sounds like they're still getting the OBSS off the ISS.
