Great article, thanks Chris!
I'm a little surprised that they're going to do the SSPTS install on Atlantis.
Could someone post a screenshot of the updated FAWG Planning Manifest? I'm talking about the timeline document that looks like this:
http://images.google.com/images?q=FAWG+Planning+ManifestI'm sure it's probably available on L2, but (sorry to those of you who've heard me say this before) I don't subscribe to L2 because from what I hear it's TOO GOOD. I would never be able to pull myself away and get back to work! This FAWG manifest is the only thing that I really need to have in a higher quality format; for everything else, the teaser images in the NSF articles and elsewhere are good enough for me.
The copy I have now is dated Jan 2007 and obvious completely out of date. I was waiting for the Atlantis decision to be final before asking. It would be great if the screenshot was of a resolution high enough that I can read the small print (e.g. "SPDU"). Or better yet, a PDF

That was a quality read. I like the personal touch, where one feels a level of empathy for the vehicle when seeing the alternative fate of being a spare parts bin.
