• I don't think we are going to have KU unless we are lucky, we are either going to have KU and darkness for final retract or no KU and darkness for final.

• 5 minutes to loss of TDRS-West comm, loss of KU through West due to line of sight and station blockage issues, we are under comm of EAST, KU has returned but it may disappear again as we move out of TDRS-West comm coverage.

• MET for the STS-117 mission is now exactly 7 days! We appear to have KU now through TDRS-East (which is good!) but sunset is 6 minutes away! We are 33 minutes away to the ZOE and expect the KU to drop out before we reach the ZOE.
