i surely hope a MMOD doesn't mean we're out of the frying pan & into the fire.

might be a jig/tool support for original ground handling, looks to have a main "hole" and 2 smaller indentations.

Without any views of it "clean" in the last few months or so, I'd say it's more likely it's been "dinged" sometime over the 6 years it's been in orbit...

It doesn't have any camera lens debris on it, does it?

There's nothing they can do about it.

Think I heard Houston say they are getting into latching and asked the crew to watch how that goes...

Meanwhile we are latched

"Houston, I think we've found evidence of Suni's camera"

one blanket box now latched and tight

psloss · « **Reply #449 on:** 12/18/2006 11:53 pm »

Seeing the latches driving now...

psloss · « **Reply #450 on:** 12/18/2006 11:54 pm »

The wing is latched and time to wrap up the EVA.

MKremer · « **Reply #451 on:** 12/18/2006 11:55 pm »

Both blanket boxes now fully latched. All done!

5 hours, 34 minutes into the EVA...SSRMS taking Beamer to APFR egress position...Christer is going to try to get closeout photos during the night pass...

Asking about that get-ahead task...

Edit: correction, PAO says follow-up task...

nacnud · « **Reply #455 on:** 12/18/2006 11:57 pm »

Quick question, once dexter (the Canada hand) is attached to the SSRMS will it be able to do these kind of tasks without having to rely on space walking astronauts?

Chris Bergin · « **Reply #456 on:** 12/18/2006 11:57 pm »

Well I think we can safely say that the P6 is no longer an issue

ApolloLee · « **Reply #457 on:** 12/18/2006 11:57 pm »

Just fantastic work.... Beamer's truly become a legend in this mission....

Edit: Sorry Phil, follow-up task it is.
