I've just seen it go into orbital night... from my backyard

It was the first time I saw it knowing what it was beforehand. Really bright and fast!

So this LAN cable -- is it safe to assume this isn't your normal RJ-45 type cable you can get at any electronics store? Probably custom made, shielded, etc...?

Sounds like the tether got under cable...

Ive just seen it too, cca 15 minutes ago (prediction by heavens-above

, it is amazing to look up and see ISS to fly above and then on Nasa TV a to see a view from the other end

Also, when you know, that on that moving dot, there are two humans working right now !

1 minute left to this ZOE pass before moving into TDRS-West comm coverage (no KU through West for a while), this KU is through TDRS-Z just like the last orbit, when we lose it, we will lose KU until we move closer under TDRS-West in about 20 - 25 minutes. 7 minutes to sunrise.

2 minutes to sunrise, KU still through TDRS-Z for a few more minutes, when it is gone, it is gone until we get KU from TDRS-West, complex passing southwest of Australia.

Ground sending up a plan to tether the shield in place. This isn't going well.

EVA is planned to end on time according to MCC-H so there will be no get-aheads on this EVA tacked on. MMOD panel may be tethered in place to save EVA PET time.

Sounds like we may need yet another US Station EVA before 118 arrives.

Loss of KU through TDRS-Z as expected, as I said, when its gone, its gone. Next KU pass will be with TDRS-West in about 20 minutes, as the complex moves south, then east of NewZealand, and then starts to move northeast again towards the central Pacific Ocean, under TDRS-West, now under West comm coverage (S-band comm), for the next 40 minutes, sunset is 50 minutes from now.

For what it's worth, NASA.gov in their own reporting of the EVA mentions that they "installed a TV camera."
It is mistake, of course...
Today only the VSSA (Video Stanchion Support Assembly) stanchion was taken from the FSE (Flight Support Equipment) stanchion carrier on ESP-2 (External Stowage Platform) and installed onto CP-1 (camera port) position on S3 truss... ETVCG (External Television Cameras Group) camera will be installed onto VSSA stanchion sometime in future...
