Another one of NASA's finest moments.
Kudos to everyone at Mission Control, Station Robotics Ops, and EVA crew.
It was thrilling to watch the team get station construction back on track. Now onto Harmony and SARJ tasks... |

With the pushing of the EVA out to Saturday it didn't sound like they had
time to address SARJ when they talked about it on Thursday. I think they are just about out of cryo and other consumables on the shuttle side, and need to come home. "JD in TX" wrote in message ...

P4 and P6 provide plenty of power now that they can track the sun, and S4 adds some juice even if it can't track the sun. They said initially that fixing the S3 SARJ would be several Shuttle missions down the road. My guess is that they'll add inspection of the SARJ (what they would have done on this flight had P6 not been crippled) to STS-122 next month, and repairs will be way down the road on 126 or 119.

There hasn't been talk about that that I've heard in nasatv coverage yet. In the newsconf today, they said they wanna get the shavings back on the ground and into the lab to figure out what type of steel it is, which will tell them whether it's ball bearings, vs, ... pointing to what component is getting shaved, work the failure tree to figure out what's most likely to be the cause, and work up repair procedures/scenarios from there. Caveat: I missed the coverage during the first days of the mission when the sarj issue was discovered. -- Todd H. http://toddh.net/ |
