I just have to comment-
The more I watch these operations, the more I have flashbacks of being in a control room watching divers work a salvage job or well head underwater.
Of course, we never had video quite this clear due to silt and backscatter....

If anyone is wondering where all these bolts are, here is a drawing of the battery with them identified (from the EVA checklist).

Checking in from the road - the RSU difficulties made the news on the radio. All three units are replaced now, I take it (one using the spare)?
