  Report of a not-so-lovely smell coming from the WHC...apparently a filter needs changing (quickly, was the request)...ground is discussing.
  
  Edit: ground says that a UPA processing run started about an hour ago...
  

  Still talking about whether the two are related...or maybe how much.

  One's in space, the other is not.

  PS Anyone find it ironic the Chinese are beefing up their manned space program network during the final shuttle program?

• Oh, they are going to use the ISLE protocol - as opposed to the standard campout.
