  Fastest flow since STS-125!
  

  
  Huh? Atlantis had a 6-month processing flow from 125 to 129. She has a 6-month flow from 129 to 132. Not sure I follow your claiming that this is the fastest flow since 125.

  Crawler parked outside the Pad A gate...pretty soon it will pick up MLP-2 and head back to VAB High Bay 1 to get ready to begin booster stacking for STS-132.
  

  This operation (A3204) is scheduled for today, with call to stations at this time.

• What day does booster stacking for Atlantis's final flight begin on the MLP?
• #26 by DaveS on 14 Feb, 2010 12:41
• MLP disconnects have been completed.

• Seems like they're still working on getting the 9099 Interface cables disconnected from the MLP, so they're not ready for jacking yet.

• MLP-2 atop the Crawler.

• Didn't see this posted anywhere else, just FYI.
  Liberty Star and the Pegasus barge are departing Port Canaveral today to pick up ET-136 from Michoud.

  Don't let Atlantis see that "Fat lady" comment.  I'm sure she's self-concious enough after seeing the Stick on the pad next to her back in October

• There are some new images of Steve Bowen getting prepared for spacewalking training sessions at NASA Human Space Flight web site. See for ex. http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/gallery/images/shuttle/sts-132/html/jsc2010e019601.html
  
  Does it mean that STS-132 will have 3 spacewalkers? Good, Reisman and Bowen ? or only 2 (Good and Reisman) as mentioned earlier
