 Endeavour, this is Houston. Are you ready to begin the event? NHK, this is Houston. Please call Endeavour for a voice check. Endeavour, this is NHK. How do you hear me? Endeavour, this is Endeavour. You are loud and clear. We see Mr. Wakata waving hand to us with the card called Earth. Now, let's talk to Commander. Commander Duffy, congratulations for your smooth operations of various tasks. As he's saying, congratulations. We are performing very good. We are achieving the mission tasks successfully so far. Thank you very much for coming aboard Endeavour with us today. Right now, we're approaching... According to the commander, everything is going smoothly and they're enjoying the flights. Mr. Mori, Mr. Wakata, hello. We are looking at you from the Earth. You are doing a wonderful job. We are in Houston. We are all impressed by Koichi's wonderful work. They're very happy with your work. All my colleagues are done in Houston. Thank you very much. I am very happy that everything has gone very well so far. Unfortunately, Commander has to explain, excuse himself, because of EVAs that are about to start. Thank you for appearing, Mr. Duffy. Now, sixth graders of the Japanese school in Houston are here with me. They seem to have many questions they want to ask you directly here. First of all, first of all, what did Koichi say? You said something like the Earth covered with blue veil looked something. I saw you saying that on TV, but I couldn't hear you very well. Well, the blue veil that I was referring to was the thin atmosphere. And there was a big contrast between the black space and a beautiful blue Earth. And I really truly felt that the Earth was alive. Let's continue our questions. What about Igarashi-san? The moment the rocket went up into space, whose voice and whose face came up to you first? At the moment of launch, it takes a lot of attention and I was around here at the time of the launch. I was very concentrating on the monitors of the instruments and so forth. I couldn't imagine anyone's face. And Debra, we have the Flight Deck view. And Debra Houston, we're on the Aft Flight Deck with you. Copy that? Right, so you've got the PDAP there. You can install the PDAP on the Starbird Bay 4 launch flight. Very, very fast. Just to unlock the TA line. Okay, and let's see. That's been worked. Primary jet firing is coming up for both of y'all. Okay. Let us know when Brick and Winston then install and remove an avionics line from that TA line. Okay, and that will be in work after the burn. Then, this configuration of the APM-R, and I'm going to do three clockwise on the Z-bolt. Debra Houston, we're two minutes from the ZOE. We'll get you back in approximately seven minutes for the Flight Deck. You'll go for the SM checkpoint at the end of 14-7 cabin repress. And for IV and EV, the plan right now is for Leroy to proceed as planned on the timeline. For EV-3, we're going to give you some easy tasks following your utility box, so you both meet up at PWP setup. That's the plan for now. Good, copy, see you on the other side. Okay, Dan, next set of three for us, I think. You've got to temp-stow the torque wrench at the work site, and then you have your quick grabs from the APM-R. Oh, yeah, of course. We wouldn't want you to forget those, sir. Well, sir, I'll work on the suit lines. Absolutely, I've got one connected already. Okay, I've reconnected one of the lower fluid line umbilical to the primary box. The reconnection, the memory force in the line was not a problem. The clamp that clamps it down, again, is just difficult to actuate with one hand. The thermo blanket are very difficult to put back into place. If you put the blankets in place, try to reclamp it, then you can't see how to reclamp it. If you reclamp it first, you don't have enough clearance to easily reconfigure the thermo blanket. Again, these thermo blankets are a big problem. They need to be re-done, re-done. I've got the grounding straps back in place underneath the most spring clip. It looks like a generally slimsy mechanism. I know it hails on asset. Again, the problem is that it's just too small. We're working with a very small wire and a very small connector and a very small spring clamp. An item of that size, a very difficult, as you know, to work with in these gloves. So that's my comment on this first leg. I'll go ahead and reconfigure the second leg and finish this task up. Okay, and let me just read the steps to make sure we got them all. I appreciate those comments, by the way. We've reconfigured the thermo blanket. Yeah. Stowed in a tempon clip. I prefer to reclamp the two individual line clamps and verified loss on the one that you did. The two individual line clamps, you confused me. I'll get the connector back into its clamp in the primary box. Right, but there's a line clamp on the two lower fluid connectors. Only teflon clips, but the two heads, the connectors are clamped and there's a single teflon clip for the lower one. Yeah, but Winston, look forward to those teflon clips and I think you'll find a line clip forward to the teflon clips. Okay, let me take a better look here. And Dan is a current in the dark with the spotlight on the helmet. I've got my left spotlight on. The ECC is much more readable. I still think the font size is too small and the paper cup checklist is superior in readability for contrast and size of the font. That's great about it, Leroy. Leroy, I think it's terrific that one guy was able to see and evaluate it in the light and in the dark. I agree. It's the same amount of time I think you gave him outstanding about. Great. Any more of the ECC? Yes, we need you to comment on any mobility caused by the ECC. Well, as you can see, it's difficult to reach my helmet perched off. If I could cut the size down, that'd be great. I can't swing it out of the way. You see, it's kind of loose on my arm. I should have been a little tighter, I guess, but I didn't want to be too tight so I could swing it out of the way in case I needed to. Okay, good. Thanks for the feedback. And that completes that section. And we'll be able to load it out and onto the unorbit installed slide wire. Okay. And your first step there is to obtain the slide wire carrier from the forward bulkhead. Okay. And Leroy just says, you know, heads up, that was scheduled at a PEG of 205 and we're at about 230 right now. So about 25 minutes back. Okay, and Dan, I'm looking for speed up down in the dark. I can see the green light on. I think it's just so dim in the direct sunlight that you can't see it. It has a great idea to recheck it from Leroy and I'm sure those folks would like it. Maybe you could just stay there a second to be sure that it's solid red for 20 to 30 seconds and then solid green. That'd be the stand-by. No, but it's been in stand-by for a while. So it's solid green now. Okay, yeah, you're right. It's only solid red for 23 seconds. Good call. Okay. Thanks for rechecking that and you can move on to obtain the slide wire carrier from the forward bulkhead. Okay, Roger that. Okay, Dan, on the lines again, I think maybe we're, maybe I'm using it wrong to show the knowledge. The two fluid lines jump in from the bottom. Each of the heads have connectors that they go on. A line clamp, I guess you want to call them and a tough monclamp in the center. I've got the lower one done and I'm going to do the upper one down. Okay, perform the following for the task plate. The first steps are going to be a quick grab, which is three times both hands to space. Three times both hands to space. Here we go. One. Okay, layback maneuver. Three times single layback, no hands. Max. Okay, that's one. I agree. Okay, Dan, what's next? I got the, I'll go ahead, story. We're planning on not doing a PWP assembly to give priority to the thermal evaluation. Leroy may want to do the photo documentation of the utility box. Okay, story. We'll go ahead and do that. Do you want Winston to move to the thermal eval position now? In there for EVA. At 50 minutes to the point where we can begin the thermal eval, you can go ahead and start the PWP assembly. I'm going to unbox the door open in anticipation of taking the photograph during sunup. That'll be great. How are your helmet lights for the task? Light beam and narrow beam. I tried some combinations for both and for close in task the spot beam was good and for overall the white beam was good. So I was saying you give those both days? Both days. Do you have a letter for the overall task in the utility box? No, I give it a B. Okay. It's time to remove the push lock tool from the rigid tether and temp stop worksite. It works. Winston, I've got your slide wire wrapped around. Okay, my old thing. The first seven minutes on east will be in blockage. You have the cameras. I'll try to copy that. Endeavour, we can take the cameras again. Okay, so they're all yours. Thank you. My BRT is going to go back here anyway. Give me the orientation one more time to go this way. It goes in 180 from what you've got. The thing that's facing your chest is that probe sticking out of the wall. Okay, BRT is checked. Okay, now I'm going to have Brennan grapple it and then I'm going to hand it to you and you're going to help slide it into this slide. You can go on that probe. That one there. That one there. Got it. You can move. You can remove it from the... Okay. Infector. Are you ready? I'll de-rich. Ready to de-rich. Okay, starting now. I feel it. Okay, it's de-rich. And then when you're ready, you're ready for the release. You're ready for the release. Okay, I feel it. And you're going to back away. Okay, backing away. Yeah. After Winston. They're clear. Go ahead and move the arm up. Thanks for getting out of your way, Lila. Okay, great. Good job. And Winston, you inserted into the probes. So we'll get the camera in. Okay, Dan, I'm full hot. At a good point. Probably about a 5.5 or a 6. Okay, I copy a thermal comfort of a 6. Okay, but I'll read through you two. You can both set your waters to off. You are close to locking the outer hatch. Second, you're close to locking the outer hatch.
