Going to have that ground tag-up very soon to decide on NOBL plan.
Timewise it looks like they are just over 10 mins ahead of the nominal EVA timeline at the moment
Edit: MCC-H notes that ~1 hour ahead on the MET timeline and this is what will drive the overall duration

Should have known as soon as I thanked people for teamwork that all the screenshots would have gone AWOL!
I would if I could....
I'm lucky to have a stable 19k connection right now to simply listen and refresh this site every few minutes...lol

They're much further ahead of the day timeline due to starting early, correct?
EDIT: CAPCOM just confirmed they're over an hour ahead!

Asking how many NOBL's to be worked on. One hour ahead of the timeline, so go to install all three NOBLs.
Scooter asks the spacewalkers.
"Gee I don't know Scooter"
"Ok, we're going to press" - Scooter.

Amazing. With Galveston Bay directly below, they can see Lake Michigan off in the distance. I'm waving, guys! Not to re-incite the LEO vs. interplanetary debate, but the small difference from ISS orbit is enlightening.

Yeah, thats correct. I've been giving the elapsed time of the EVA against the plan, but the early start will allow the EVA to be extended.

I assume they will declare full mission success now the FGS is complete too :-)
EDIT: They just have! - whoo!

This view really shows how much the EVA crew member can cause the arm to bounce around.

Full mission success when the NOBLs are installed. Absolutely awesome.

I think with these last tasks (when completed) STS-125 would have achieved 100% of everything they set out to do plus more. Correct me if I'm wrong?

The NOBL's were not in the full mission success list were they Chris?

As Dan Burbank said, the real limiter is the flight day timeline; the nominal EVA timeline had airlock repress at around 3 pm Eastern, so I'm assuming they could stay out until around then. (If necessary.)
