FD5 Article and Atlantis status via several MMT presentations on L2:
http://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2010/05/sts-132-mrm-1-installed-port-wing-boost/
So, OK. Can someone help me understand why, in the article, in the image of the orbiter's port nose area it says "Douglantis"? Do I get a prize for noticing this?
Well done for noticing! No you don't get a prize
When we first saw that on another presentation, we were thinking it was some graphics guy called Doug playing with the name of the orbiters, but we were informed it's the name of the software "DOUG" (Dynamic Onboard Ubiquitous Graphics) the use for these sorts of graphics.
There's a Dougscovery and Endougvour too!

Any chance you're going to let us have (a link to the high-res version of) the mind-blowing portrait of Atlantis heading your article 'STS-132: Russia’s MRM-1 installed – Port Wing clearance boost', Chris?

Whee! And that's an amazing information of the day!

Sure. I actually used the single published photo, but we've since got the full set of about 20 photos (panned from end to end, full vehicle) in L2 and have people creating a stitch, which is going to be rediculously amazing. So there's a better one to come that'll lead an article (FD7 I reckon)!
However, the one you're asking about - click for full size:

If you don't mind me asking, what was the question that FOX news asked that got them kicked the second time?

The question didn't get them kicked the second time around, they just cut the event half way through Pier's response to it. Must have run out of time (mainly due to them messing about the first time). Really was shockingly bad and very unprofessional.

Maybe I am wrong, but maybe it was caused by KU pass end?
