re: #44 turn

I just hope they don’t have Heide Stefanyshyn-Piper up there assigned to tool inventory. Gawd, what a f-up losing that tool bag was. btw, I found it interesting that on the last service mission to Hubble Nasa strapped a rocket on the thing and when the service life is up they plan to bring it down in the Pacific ocean.

It’s not a rocket, it’s a fixture for attaching something - they don’t know what - onto the HST. They could just as well dock Orion on it, if Orion ever gets built.

Into sunset over Africa now. I wish I had upgraded my cable package for this mission. There’s only a year left in the program, I might go ahead and pay the extra $10 a month.
