There goes the NTD's tie!
Is it normal practice to cut the NTD's tie after each launch?
Great launch, by the way. The best I've seen so far!

Yes.
Atlantis has some post ascent issues, mainly data (bits) and such. Nothing serious and you can forgive her a few issues after that wonderful launch.
Would also like to note that I'm greatful for your patience with this update thread. We've learned from previous launches that we need to keep it tidy and on track for the benefit of all.

!
No. It was Steve Payne's first launch and it is tradition to cut the the NTD's tie after MECO as welcome ceremony.

Not completely sure, but the way that PAO explained it, it sounds like this was Steve Payne's first launch shift as NTD.

Now that I see it calmly in the replays, the smoke contrail was really beautiful, and I must say I've fallen in love with the condensation clouds at Max Q :laugh:

External tank doors in the orbiter belly have been closed without incidences.

I thought it worked very well. Great job by all.
