It looked like at one point they were shooing Sandy out the door.

Were those camera flashes I just saw? Why takes pictures if the hatch is already closed?

It looks by the flashes that they are taking a lot of pictures. Maybe some will be posted on NASA of the crew in the Discovery.

Could also serve as hatch closeout images for documentation. NASA photographs everything in that regard.

Are we sure that the hatch is closed?

There's two hatches, one on the shuttle side and one on the Station side of the PMA. We've not heard confirmation that both hatches are closed yet.

Thats what I thought. Now the coverage is showing outside pictures.

Looking at the live downlink, shuttle side has closed
