  1. Completing a great day in space... Station Arm moving and attaching the second 6.5 ton hardware pallet (ELC) to the outside of the Station.
  2. Getting ready to start another busy Robotics day on ISS with 12 people in space.
  3. @tarynoneill No new ideas because they dont really understand SciFi history and dont know how to meld old humanisms with actual science.
  4. Hey @HTSAAAR: Two Scifi quotes: Remember, thifty thinkers are always underbudget. Please come back. You have nothing to be afraid of.
  5. HTV A1 burn in progress... onward we move....to ISS capture..
  6. HTV now 5020 meters form ISS and slowing - looking good. Robotic system is up, ready and looking good for grappling the HTV later today.
  7. HTV now 5411 meters from the ISS and is a bright dot in the sky from the ISS video downlink.
  8. HTV 8334 meters and inbound - all going well. ISS Robotics system being activated and configured for vehicle capture.
  9. The Japanese spacecraft, HTV, at 17509 meters and inbound to the ISS for robotic capture.
  10. ISS making spaceflight history; 64 years after the end of WWII, the US and Japan working side-by-side, their first spacecraft docking soon.
  11. ISS robotics activities complete for the day... Crew gone to sleep... and 4 more hours on console... toothpics please!!!
  12. Finally a quiet shift in MCC. No robotics activities until tomorrow. And everything till now so smooth its almost boring. Almost.
