I've always wondered why they didn't plan all three PAS deployments in the same EVA. You're always fast in doing the same thing the second time so they would have gain more time by doing that.

"Hello Houston!"
Hello back to you! Mike claimed he could see his house from there. He's lying - it's overcast and raining down here.

You obviously don't remember the problems they had with the first (previous flight). Almost busted it trying to jump up and down on it trying to get it to deploy. They had to develop a special tool to release the detents.

Well, I should add the forward side of S3 - as of the whole truss - has the rails where the Mobile Transporter with the Mobile Base Systems is driving along (and the CETA carts too). So we have all four sides of S3 covered.
Analyst
Isn't the truss hexagonal and considered to have 6 faces?
Yes. Two sides are pointing directly forward and aft. Nadir and zenith are composed of two (sub-)sides each, pointing kinda "nadir/forward and nadir/aft" and "zenith/forward and zenith/aft."

I was thinking more about this flight. They had planned to do two PAS deployments, one in EVA2 and one in EVA3. Why didn't they plan them to the same EVA? They would have saved time since they didn't have to transition to the workplace as well.

This is the last PAS that needs to be deployed if I'm not mistaken.
Hmm.. I thought that outboard, nadir one PAS is still stowed. Am I wrong? So far it seems we will have 3 PAS deployed (and one UCCAS) after this day...

This is the third PAS being deployed on this mission. And you had ELC-2 being mated the the fourth one earlier today. They only need two UCCAS, one has ELC-1 and one has ESP-3 so they are all deployed.
