A heads up. We're into late inspections now. MSB coming up in 8 minutes, which I won't be around for (and hope someone will be).
The OBSS will be berthed in about two hours, I believe that's what I heard.

I will be around, but hope anyone else is available to transcribe? I'm not sure if I can handle this, not a native speaker and not a fast typer either. Plus I'm at work.

Watched my recording of the final undocking and fly around this morning, great words from all involved, and the final ringing of the station's bell for a shuttle crew. This tradition, dating from the days of sail, started with ISS Expedition 1 when CAPT Bill Shepherd, USN, Exp. 1 CDR, rang aboard CAPT Bret Jett, USN, CDR of Endeavour during STS-97. This great tradition continued for each subsequent shuttle mission until today. Godspeed Atlantis and her crew.

Questions
Q: Did the crew get photos?
A: Haven’t gotten any indications they haven’t, we dont get a lot of feedback from the crew on images. We should start to see some by tonight
Q: Did you savour the moment with it being your last shift? (Philip!)
A: We were, we enjoyed guiding the crew, I didn’t make any speeches today, focused on executing our tasks properly. Enjoyed tremendous imagery in real time, it created a nice atmosphere in MCC.
Q: What did signing the shuttle model left on station mean to you?
A: I barely have words to describe how humbled I feel to be allowed to sign the model. It will live on station as a reminder of the shuttle program. I consider it an honour and appreciate and recognise the contribution of the team members who have worked for and with me, they make me look smart. My team is so good I don’t have to do much apart from nod and point.
Q: Going to look at the shuttle and ISS fly overhead tomorrow?
A: I’m tempted but I owe it to my wife and son to be asleep.
Q: Emotions tomorrow in MCC?
A: Indications are the level of emotion in MCC will be building geometrically between now and landing day. The sense of wanting to be a part of that moment is strong. I will be there with my wife and friends and maybe my son. I will feel a sense of completion and a touch of sadness.
Q: It was moving listening to Steve Robinson signing off [indiscernible]
A: The words of Steve were powerful, simple and brief. He accurately represented how my team felt. As I was leaving I saw a group of people in my team who believed they worked hard and flew a good mission. They have earned this emotion
Q: Did you turn around and make a memory as you walked out?
A: Yes
Q: Will your team ever be together in one place again?
A: Our shift will be the second to last time my whole team is together, we have a tradition of hanging a patch this will probably be the last time were together.
Q: GNC assignments?
A: 3 GNC’s for undocking and flyaround 1,2,3. GPC 4 for systems management. GP5 was in standby mode. Until entry GPC 1 will be GNC, 2 and 3 will be asleep. For entry all will be running
Q: Cryo Margins?
A: 14 hours

These are the final few moments we'll ever see of a Space Shuttle in space from a vantage point not that of herself.
Technically, I believe the small picosat they will deploy tomorrow will image Atlantis as she backs away.

Heh quoting's a bit off there I never said that
I'm not 100% sure but I think there the markings that were added on 134 to aid with late inspections?

A: We were, we enjoyed guiding the crew, I didn’t make any speeches today, focused on executing our tasks properly. Enjoyed tremendous imagery in real time, it created a nice atmosphere in MCC.
I asked the questions backwards today and did the technical part after.
Mr. Alibaruho said on the GPC 4 upset that they found a single bit that when flipped would give them what they saw. I'll try to get the audio of that online later.
Also asked about the Window 10 fogging "funny," but that's all it was.
