Pausing a few minutes due to ratty comm.

Warning on ratty comm - "we are going to pause on building the next template"
(presumably this is the next set of SSRMS instructions?)

Excellent coverage guys (I've been struggling all day with streaming due to a house move and relying on 3G back up internet - nightmare!)

So I've been doing what most people here do, follow the coverage on the thread, and it's been superb!

Really don't think this berthing could have gone smoother.

Good comm. Next template is on board. GO for next step.

Second stage capture complete. Dragon is now officially on the station.
