    Beeker are You going to be able to stay tuned for the undocking and fly-around?
    Anybody know where it is due to happen?

    If over the Atlantic there is usually uninterrupted coverage anywhere else is a gamble for them being in range of the tracking&relay satellites:(

    Note the STS-129 patch hidden behind the hand. It was only put on just before the STS-130 patch as the crew of STS-129 forgot to put their decal on before they left.:)

    It must be bitter sweet for the Endeavour crew knowing they will never get to visit the station again.

    I have never seen one that had such great coverage from the Shuttle flight deck and from the ISS when they were approaching and docking!
    Sounding like the undocking will have a lot of stupid S-band almost still pictures:eek:
