GO to preform the KAA (Keep Alive Assembly) disconnects.

Ron was, apparently, hooked on something, and Mark Kelly saw him with the "big eyes" (cameras).  That's the part I heard when I turned on the audio.

The two EV's were informed that they are now flying over the English Channel.

12 minutes to sunset, 12 minutes to the ZOE, should have KU for about 10 more minutes before we go to either S-band stills or no video as we approach the ZOE, should have a handover to Z after that time.

Ron Garan still releasing the KAA.  Mike Fossum has checked the CBM (Common Berthing Mechanisms) on Harmony.  They seem to be good to go.

Spacewalk PET is 1 hour 12 minutes, everything is going well, Ron is releasing attachments that held the OBSS to the S1 truss for the past 3 months, KAD on the S1 is now off the truss.

8 minutes to the ZOE, 8 minutes to sunset.

Sounds as if the KAA was successfully de-attached, and they're about to move the OBSS.

Good motion, the Canada Arm 2 is moving the OBSS 500 centimeters.

Now moving the OBSS off of S1 and over to the RMS to get it out of the way. Complex is now passing southwest of Moscow.

Once the station arm is free of the OBSS, it will maneuver to grapple to the Harmony Module, putting it in the correct position for the JPM unberthing.
