Best coverage on the net, said it before, but has to be said again. Really don't know how the public coped before this site, but that's a sign of how great this place is. And that goes for those of us who work with the missions too, we love being here too, very motivating to see so much interest and respect.
We really need to thank you guys who sit at the consoles and get her up and back safely. This was a tremendous mission, and that's a testament to all the guys on the ground making decisions (such as the bypass across the board during the roll maneuver) on the minute, that's another reason I got into spaceflight. A majestic vehicle that takes many decisions, on a fraction of a second, to run. It's amazing. Thanks for your hard work.

Quick question: when do we expect to see the crew walk-around?

Closeup of the CTV (Crew Transport Vehicle), which has the crew inside. Hopefully it will back away soon and the crew will egress.

Kind of a wait and see thing -- likely based on when the crew is ready. Often the people mover backs away from the side hatch first and then it is after that.

Amen to that. This site as given me such a broader view of spaceflight, beyond anything I could have ever imagined. After looking around at other sites, with all the nonsense, poor/slow reporting, but most of all the unsensored attacks & disrespect...I keep coming back and loving every minute of it.
Cheers to this team, and the great coverage (once again) you put out. When I get down for my first shuttle launch, I'm buying the first round!
