• The Great Sandra is wearing a shirt in a different colour from all the others, a purple red-ish colour. Now on to the safety procedures briefing.
  Nice to see all this cheering between the two crews!

• Sandy: Did you see the hold at 31 seconds?
  Aggie: Yeah, WHAT THE HELL WAS THAAT?
  
  
  
  Sandy: We're live to the ground now boys and girls.
  
  Girls? Unless she's talking about Atlantis of course.

• I've been watching this Atlantis mission in HD.  Must say IMHO it has been the smoothest Shuttle mission I have ever seen, very impressive.
  
  Atlantis ...To quote Winston Churchill "our finest hour"

  Text Book RPM conducted. Not ashamed to say I've teared up.  I'll get over that by banning anyone who was posting on a non STS-135 thread during that
  

  
  Hopefully, like with 134, all those will be on L2 in the not-too-distant future.  They were quite stunning for 134.
  

  
  And they're already showing up in L2!!!
