Dragon is about 10 minutes ahead of the timeline. Capture expected on time, because there is a LOS shortly before capture.

VLC is running ~12 seconds behind Ustream.

What is the size of the squares on the crew's display?  (Edit:  Never mind.  I can see that the display is changing dynamically.  I thought they represented a specific distance.)
