Here's a preview of the STS-132 crew patch - the patch for what is currently planned to be Atlantis's final flight.
www.collectspace.com/sts132_patch
I have to say, I like this one! 
I think that the back of the Shuttle is to wide.
Maybe it's that "middle aged spread"....

only schedules EVA's with shuttle astronauts are performed out of the regular airlock.
EVAs would only be out of the Russian airlock if they are tasked to Russian cosmonauts, usually when shuttle isn't docked, and are considered "staged EVAs".
Russian cosmonauts in Russian spacesuits. That is the way of things. Just like Russian water into the Russian segment.

Ok. I just remember that hearing that decision on airlock always is about where the EVA focuses and that shuttle EVA's are always U.S. segments was why U.S. airlock is always used

Interesting, since Karen Nyberg was replaced by Mike Good at some stage, wonder who were the original spacewalkers? Reisman and Nyberg?

Bowen (STS-126) and Sellers (STS-112 and STS-121) are also veteran spacewalkers so I'm sure it would have been one of them.

Hi Folks,
I know it's a way in advance, but does anyone have any information on what the overall launch window is for this flight?
I know the launch is currently NET 14th May, but does anyone know how long they have to get her off, whether there are any potential range conflicts, etc, etc...
Thanks

The MRM airlock will never be used for EVAs, as it is only a payloads airlock, like the one in the JPM.

May 14 - June 12... a solar beta angle cutout.
Way too early to tell about range conflicts with other rockets on the Eastern Range. We have to get closer and see how the EELV schedule plays out.

Thanks Chris - a friend is in the early stages of planning a trip from the UK, so any info is useful for him.

Were there ever any plans to include a Russian cosmonaut on the STS 132 crew, being that a major Russian payload was on the manifest?
Thanks.

I don't believe so. It was not part of the original agreement (which involved the SPP rather than the MRM).

With STS-131 likely slipping to April. STS-132 is likely slipping to June.
All not yet confirmed, but that's the feeling on memos (L2).

The first part of the June window would not be a night launch, no. June 1 would put launch around 8a.m.-ish.
