Nice words for Atlantis and the OPF guys from the commander after hearing they don't need the NC4 burn (a first): "good to know how well Atlantis is doing and a testiment to the guys that got her ready".

I guess we'll get the first glimpse of Hubble at about 100,000 feet or so.

Did Kyle just say Atlantis is closing in on the ISS?

(Totally forgivable - it's a tough gig commentating for hours on end during a mission).

Yep, he's slipped that one in a few times during the morning. Been saying it so for so many missions I guess.
Meanwhile closure rate has dropped to about zero as Atlantis reaches Apogee.
