One of the tiles has a bit of a ding it would seem (possibly).

It's very cool seeing the waters I've sailed from 350 miles up!

Nice! And a good point, as there's a lot of our brave lads down in some of these views of the Gulf region.

Out of Ku. EVA in purge, ahead of pre-breath.
About one hour from EVA-2 (slightly delayed).
Off to get some food, if someone could keep an eye on things.....thanks.

Question about Flight Day 3. During rendezvous they had trouble with the BSA (Bit Sync Assembly) which prevented them from getting command confirmation back from Hubble, and so they had to rely on the TDRS-to-ground link and verbal uplink to shuttle to confirm all commands. During a later press briefing Tony said they'd resolved that problem and it would not be a problem during deploy. I believe he said that the wrong bitrate (1 Mbps?) was configured on Hubble. Do I have that right? I found nothing about it in the FD3 thread or L2. L2 has nice BSA background info though

A quick question about yesterday's EVA.
Was the torque limiter set to 45 inch/lbs or 45 ft./lbs?

Yes, they closed the inner hatch a little while back. They will step into depress of the airlock now, as the pre-breathe clock has finished.
(Whether the suits can still get "consumables" from the orbiter isn't directly related to isolating the airlock from the rest of the crew module.)

What's with all the noise?
Will we have to put up with that for the entire EVA?

It's like that on every single EVA.
