Space Socks. They have to be awesome. It's in the flight rules

Are you around for this one Aaron? I'll do some notes of interest regardless.

(if I had one. I don't have a hat either, come to think of it)
Blimey, MSB music is a bit "laid back".

Debris will miss by 18kms.
Cryo margins good for an extension day. MMT to make a decision tomorrow or the next day.
Lots and lots and lots of transfers to do.
The PMA Atlantis is on will become a stowage area after STS-135.
GPC-3 was more a reload than a reboot.

ISS staying above 300kms, less drag, less reboosts needed.
EVA is important because of the failed PM. Also some Data Lines will allow robotic arms to get closer to the Russian segment.
That was a reasonably speedy one.

Very successful day on orbit
Installed the MPLM
Running an hour ahead of schedule
1 minor glitch during berthing
A microswitch on a payload retention latch failed to indicate it was open, a second one indicated it was open though
The debris will be well clear of station (18km) so taking no action
Reloaded the GPC successfully its operational and ready for use
Doing well on cryo margins looking good for an extension day
Decision will be made by MMT tomorrow or the next day
Questions
Q: What will the crew be doing today?
A: Preparing the MPLM, leak checking the port we berthed to. Then opening the hatches and doing an environment check, getting ready for the EVA tomorrow, checking suits and reviewing procedures.
Q: How many of the crew members are involved in transfers?
A: All will be involved at some point in transfer and pack of MPLM. Have 10k pounds of cargo to move out of the MPLM
Q: Plans for shuttle docking node when Atlantis leaves?
A: It’s designed for the ODS so after we leave, we wont be docking to it as nothings compatible. So it will be used for stowage.
Q: No plans to attach anything else to it?
A: Not at this time
Q: Did you reboot the GPC?
A: Call it an IPL. Take the software from the mass memory unit and reload it.
Q: Risk assessment for station from orbital debris?
A: Do risk assessment continually don’t have the exact number right now. It varies based on the environment.
Q: When Atlantis docked did it help move the station out of the way of the debris?
A: We were concerned docking would push us closer to the debris. A couple of orbits after docking we evaluated our new trajectory and made sure it was clear of the debris.
Q: How big was the delta v from docking?
A: Not sure docking also changes the centre of gravity
Q: Will the ISS stay at this orbit long term?
A: Yes, based on optimal altitude for future VV’s. At higher altitudes drag is less, so we have to do less frequent reboosts.
Q: Net affect of docking bumped the whole spacecraft up?
A: It changed, but I can’t say if it went up or down.
Q: How will they decide on how to unpack the MPLM ?
A: It’s a very choreographed show that we do. Have a transfer list, that depends on where were putting items on station, which items are of higher priority and where they are in the MPLM.
Q: First things coming out of MPLM?
A: Normally crew preference items.
Q: Go over the most important content of the EVA tomorrow?
A: Getting the pump module in the payload bay.
[Computer froze missed some things]
Q: Where will a future VV berth?
A: An open port like node 2.

Rob: "Most of the work has been taking place down the hall" (how far is the ISS FCR from the Shuttle FCR?)
No one gets a prize for saying "It's down the hall"
