Un, deux, trois
Uno, dos, tres

He's just showing off, now.

Christer's multi-lingual shakes continue...Spanish that time, I believe. Still Japanese and Russian to go, I think, hehe.

Did he count in Spanish or is my ear playing tricks? :O

Dinner is finished (yes, I can think in food in such historic events... my stomach rules over me

)

I hope my posting of KU and sunset/sunrise times is not too annoying for everyone here, I just want to inform everyone reading when to expect some TV coverage etc. since the PAO has been quiet about it.

Ku seems to vary quite a bit from what is published on flight plan. This must be a minimum availability guide

Not at all!! It's very informative and required for such a live event thread like this! Please keep them coming!

One of the options being discussed now is whether we should have 10 Christer shakes, not three. So now we'll *really* test how many languages he can count in.

I bet we've seen a record number of languages spoken during a single EVA.

Richard, please keep it up. I'm quite happy with your KU/sunset/sunrise info!

On other news. Christer has just passed Thomas Reiter on the EVA ranking list.

Speaking of food, I just got home from a nice dinner out and although I was able to follow somewhat on my PDA with NASA TV and this site, I was wondering how many bays have we retracted so far today?

sts1canada · « **Reply #233 on:** 12/18/2006 09:17 pm »

Thanks Chris & Spiff, glad to hear that I can help with the coverage! We should have KU coverage for the next 45 minutes and daylight for about 45 minutes too!

Well, I for one am completely annoyed.

No... just joking with you. I mirror every one else's thoughts.

Meantime, we are now moving Beamer close so he can manually clear up something. The ground didn't like the idea of retracting just then.

psloss · « **Reply #235 on:** 12/18/2006 09:20 pm »

Ready for retract.

3 hours (even) into the EVA.

Standing by for power for retract.

psloss · « **Reply #238 on:** 12/18/2006 09:21 pm »

Here goes one bay in...good motion...abort.

Christer says some problems on his side, but it self cleared.

sts1canada · « **Reply #239 on:** 12/18/2006 09:22 pm »

I think we have retracted 3 bays this EVA and we are starting another retract now, so we are at either 7 or 8 bays left now.
