STS-114 MCC Status Report #22
Saturday, Aug. 6, 2005 - 12:30 a.m. CDT
Mission Control Center, Houston, Texas
After more than a week of working together in space, the Space Shuttle
Discovery and International Space Station crews bid each other farewell
tonight.
Following a crew farewell ceremony at 11:36 p.m. CDT, hatches between the
spacecraft were closed at 12:14 a.m. CDT, with Discovery's undocking planned
for 2:24 a.m. CDT Saturday morning.
"The Air Force Song" was the Shuttle crew wake-up song for the day, played
at 9:09 p.m. CDT. The song was dedicated to Pilot Jim Kelly, a colonel in
the U.S. Air Force, at the request of Commander Eileen Collins. Space
Station Expedition 11 crewmates John Phillips and Sergei Krikalev woke 30
minutes later.
After Discovery undocks from the Station, with Kelly at the controls, the
Shuttle will fly around the Space Station about 400 feet away to allow the
Shuttle crew to take photographs of the complex.
The flyaround maneuver will begin at 2:54 a.m. CDT, and Discovery's final
separation from the Station begins with an engine firing at 4:09 a.m. CDT.
The majority of the rest of the day will be free time for Discovery and the
Station crew.
Discovery's crew, including Collins, Kelly and Mission Specialists Steve
Robinson, Soichi Noguchi, Andy Thomas, Wendy Lawrence and Charlie Camarda,
is scheduled for sleep at 11:39 a.m. CDT Saturday.
The Station crew, which will soon begin working back toward its normal
workday hours, is scheduled to sleep at 1:09 p.m. CDT.
The next STS-114 mission status report will be issued Saturday evening, or
earlier if events warrant.
