Might have been reported already, but the crew was recently told that the HST high gain antennas have been retracted for capture.
Scott Altman got concurrence to start Group B power up a little early when they get closer to that in the timeline.
Hefty NH burn coming up after that: delta-V of 308 fps! Burn time is 198 seconds; magnitudes are up there with some de-orbit burns.
(Prelim PAD for that is in the Execute Package.)

Page 21 of the Execute Package has some relative motion diagrams to help visualise what is going on with the NH and TI burns

Atlantis has been asked to deselect IMU 3 with an item 9, don't know what that means, but then given go ahead to proceed with orbit ops.
I wouldn't mind a close up view of that right hand screen instead of the usual three axis view.

Yep, that's very interesting!
FD3 article about one hour away, rounding up a ton of info, but avoiding getting wordy as there's no real issues being worked and MER are still only on three "Funnies" (which is very low/good!)

They show it occasionally during rendezvous ops, and all the missions now have a rendezvous in them.

Orbital dawn. Very quick at this altitude.

GNC SPEC 21 IMU Alignment, have marked item 9 with crudely drawn red box. Notice how it's under the "3" column for IMU 3. Des means Deselect.

Chris,
I think the HST grapple date and time in the top post are incorrect, it should read
"May 13 (Wed), 133/16:55 GMT (12:55 EDT)."
I know you are very busy, but if you got a minute ... People might look there first.
Thanks for your work, BTW!

Thanks much
And thanks for the correction to the opening post. What I've done there is copy the text info from the SSP FRR overview presentation (which was when STS-125 was a May 12 launch). Corrected it.
The screenshot is from a MMT overview presentation last night, so that's correct at least
