Today was a very busy, busy day for the entire team. Seth and Cory did an outstanding job getting Endeavour docked to the ISS today. Wow...it's almost unreal how busy the docked mission can be. Somehow we all get it done.
So far so good...The mission is going well so far. There have been minor complications throughout my shift...but nothing to write home about. So far, the motion control system is doing well with a 90+ ton orbiter attached. Tonight, following docking, the crew maneuvered the S5 truss segment from the orbiter payload bay and moved it to an over night park position. It will remain in this configuration over night and will be ready for its move to the very end of the starboard truss segment where the crew will install it during EVA1 tomorrow morning.
Again, tomorrow will be a busy day...and another very long day. Flight days 6 and 7 will be exciting for ADCO, for we have a lot of activities associated with our system.
There have been a few aggravating times on this mission so far...but if those are our only issues, then i am just complaining. But i knew this packet swapping thing was going to be a pain...i know i'm not the only one that could see that...
Well, tomorrow starts early for me...
Tomorrow's color is green.
