They seem to be pretty late on getting this move going. Anyone know what's going on?
Only problem they've had so far is a slight loss of voltage in a Fuel Cell. Within flight rules. Purged early and ok now.

If you set aside the overbudget gripes, mission delays and Ares skepticism for a moment, realize for a second that these are the kind of space construction images we all dreamed of when we were kids.....

For a moment I thought that warning noise was "Warning, this truss is reversing" like you get on trucks

Alarm Tone Heard on NTV. Seems to be the thrusters going offline.
No KU and SunSet is near.

Nope. Alarm was "CMG loss of attitude", so the CMGs are offline. No action for the crew(s).

Lack of CMG attitude control. No crew action. Arm in hold position. Will be able to regain (inaudible) in a few (inaudible).

Amen!
It's nice to see stuff just "work" for a change.
And these videos the crew are getting are really a GREAT idea for inspiring the children of today! They are tired of hearing doom and gloom from the media!

True, but we're still missing the swarms of astronauts in their jetpacks running around with wrenches and other construction hardware.

Do they often lose CMG attitude control? Was this an expected situation? Thanks in advance.

KU Pass!
Ok Image 1 is a view at sunset with the S3/S4 truss nearly in position.
Image 2 is a view from a camera showing the S3/S4.
They are going to use the Shuttle DAP to control attitude.

Wake up song for Swanny. He's wife and three kids chose the song. Sounded like something country 
Apparently it was "It Probably Always Will Be" by the Ozark Mountain Daredevils.
This crew sure does like its country music.
Resumption to Step 6 shouldn't be long (brakes on for the aforementioned reason). Atlantis to take attitude control.
