Just heard between FD5 Highlight replays that the CMGs have been nominal all night, that's got to be a relief.

Did anyone catch the 2B SAW report from the crew?

I am giving them about a ten percent chance of getting this retracted without extensive EVA assists, far more than the 50 minutes planned for today.

The plan for retract is as follows:
"JR, you're going to be responsible for powering on the MDA in accordance to the procedure and if you see a panel folding in the wrong direction, hit the abort.
If the panels are not retracting evenly, we will implement the BGA wiggle technique which is step 19,8. The MDA power to on at the completion is an indication that you have cleared the wiggle step, we have completed the wiggle step but we will cap the communication to verify that.
And we need you to assess during and after the wiggle tests and when you pick up step 19,2."
This is verbatim from the ISS CapCom. -

"In 30 seconds we'll be powering up the MDA for the 2B retract"

I think that this is going to need some "persuation" by Swanny and Forrester.
