 In Columbia, a nice tribute to perhaps a show that got us all interested in space when we were quite, quite young. You have our launch site. Looks like you had a cloudy day in Houston. Yeah, we copy story. We're hoping those clouds will clear out and we'll have some nice weather this weekend. We may not see much of daylight, good weather, but we'll enjoy the cool night. Sleep bugs on this flight. And of course we do have five people. Four of us are in the bugs, which are just little compartments with a sliding door on it. And story, who enjoys a little more freedom than that, is sleeping just floating around the middeck. So, one of the astronauts sleeps floating around? Is that what you're telling me? That's right. It's really hard to keep Story Musgrave in any one place for very long. And that's the way he prefers it. So he's just floating around when he sleeps. When you look down on the Earth, is it like it looks on a map? Or can you see distinguishing things like the Himalayas and things like that? When you look down, you can pick out things, but it's not like on a map. The one thing we don't have here are borders. So you don't see borders between countries. But when we do go past the Himalayas, you see the snow, which sometimes looks like clouds, but it's a brilliant white. And we did pick out man Everest the other day on a pass. And it does look massive, even at 200 miles in space. What's the biggest thrill about being in space? To me, it would be walking, the space walk that two of you are going to do. But I haven't been up there, so maybe there is a bigger thrill than that. What's the biggest thrill of being there? Unfortunately, Ken and I don't get to do the space walk. They keep us inside, but I would think that would be a very big highlight. I'm sure for Tammy and Tom, it will be. For us, there are three things that really stand out. One is the ascent. And when the solid rocket's light, our main engine's already running, you know you're going somewhere. And you really can feel that tremendous amount of thrust under you on that eight and a half minute ride during ascent. That's one thing that really stands out. The second is just the sheer thrill of floating. It's kind of hard in the smaller space here for me to show you that. But just being able to float and fly around without any kind of wings is a thrill. And then lastly, the views. The views from space are just incredible to see the curvature of the Earth, the sunrise and sunset, and the world going by. It's incomprehensible for me to even try to project what you're seeing out there. Do you ever see anything that you can't identify? And, you know, the UFO phenomenon as everybody just continues to debate. Is there anything that you ever see or photograph that's strange to you? I see a lot of interesting sights and you see things from a new perspective. The first time you see a shooting star, a meteor hitting the atmosphere, it's very unusual because it's all happening below you. But none of us in this crew, and as far as I know, any other crews have seen anything that hasn't eventually been explained. The difficulty comes now when you have to come back in two weeks, correct? Another phase of flight. It's one that Kent and I are going to enjoy a lot, being pilots. And we get to guide this fantastic machine all the way from 17,000 miles per hour to Mach 25 down to what we hope is a smooth and graceful landing in Florida. In Columbia, in the on-orbit multi-axis RCS burn procedure, orbit ops, I think we probably could burn without opening up the home's helium if you concur. We copy and concur. We're going to leave it configured as is, and you won't see us going through those inter-connect steps. We're on the step two. We copy. Columbia, Houston, we see good config for the burn. Columbia, Houston, good burn. Houston, Columbia for view capital. We see that a temperature sensor has registered a reading above 60 degrees and we are ending the current test. We copy.
