I'm liking these crew interviews with the handheld camera. This is the stuff I wish they would show on the news.

They're downloading some HD stuff now...their approach to the bottom of the telescope (inside view of the crew cabin). Wicked detail for NTV

HA!!! When speaking of the rendezvous, CAPT Altman made the "I was inverted." hand gesture. Very appropriate since he flew that scene in Top Gun.

Conjunction time has passed.
Crew has just been notified no FI is needed.
Crew also notified that about 16 tiles on the port side were missed in the inspection, and MCC will devise a plan to check it out with RMS post-EVA tomorrow.

Update: the RMS inspection is being re-planned for FD5.

Is this doable without OBSS?

Depends on where the 16 tiles in question are. The RMS is on the port side so it's an easier reach.

The Orbit 2 PAO Pat Ryan said they are below the left-firing thrusters on the FRCS. Not sure if that's below the FRCS module itself, but that's the general area.

Apologies. Let me rephrase my question.
Is a visual-only inspection via the SRMS video camera likely to be considered sufficient for these 16 missed tiles, or do they need the LDRI to make this determination? Since the RPM is obviously considered useful, I'm guessing a visual-only inspection is sufficient unless damage is found, is that correct?

Right, the SRMS wrist camera can do the equivalent of an RPM visual-only inspection, then they can haul out the OBSS if needed. The camera is much lower resolution than the 400 and 800 mm lenses used for the RPM but it will also be much closer.

This is probably heading more to the Shuttle Q&A topic, but I thought the OBSS sent down one 3D image out of the 4 that it takes, which is why the camera flickers? Or am I completely messing that up?

Sorry to go back in time.... Does someone have a link to the detailed black and white mission summary timeline? Analogman posted a couple pages on page 1 of this topic this morning.

Oop. Page 1 is a variable. It was reply #20. I'd found this complete summary a mission or two ago from another source but can't track it down this time.

See thread msg #209 for the STS-125 master flight plan link, and msg #9 for the daily Execute Package update link (any daily flt plan updates will be published there each morning)
