В 23:56 мск были открыты переходные люки между станцией и шаттлом,и экипажи МКС и шаттла встретились.Теперь на станции временно работают 13 человек.
To recap, astronauts Dave Wolf and Chris Cassidy planned to replace four aging batteries in the International Space Station's oldest solar array truss today, but spacesuit consumables prompted the EVA to end after only installing two new power packs. The EVA, which lasted a total of six hours, began with Cassidy getting Japanese experiments ready for mounting on the station's next external science deck tomorrow. EVA ENDS. Repressurization of the Quest airlock module is underway, marking the official end of today's spacewalk by Dave Wolf and Chris Cassidy at 4:31 p.m. EDT. The EVA lasted 5 hours and 59 minutes. That brings the total time for the two spacewalks conducted thus far during Endeavour's mission to 18 hours and 24 minutes. It was Wolf's seventh spacewalk in his career working outside both the International Space Station and Russia's space station Mir. For Cassidy, this was his first EVA. The fourth and fifth spacewalks for the Endeavour crew are scheduled to occur Friday and Monday, respectively. Cassidy and Tom Marshburn will perform those excursions. How Mission Control will replan those EVAs to include the leftover battery replacement work, plus a Japanese camera installation and external cargo bracket deployment deferred the two earlier spacewalks is not yet known.
EVA BEGINS. The spacewalkers switched their suits to internal battery power at 9:54 a.m. EDT, marking the official start time for today's EVA by Chris Cassidy and Tom Marshburn. This is the fourth of five spacewalks planned during Endeavour's mission at the International Space Station. With his feet secured in a work platform, spacewalker Chris Cassidy is releasing the next fresh battery from the delivery pallet that's hanging on the end of the space station's robot arm. While Cassidy focuses on the carrier, fellow spacewalker Tom Marshburn will be the astronaut to do the battery removals and installations on the P6 truss.
EVA ENDS. Repressurization of the Quest airlock module is underway, marking the official end of today's spacewalk by Chris Cassidy and Tom Marshburn at 5:06 p.m. EDT. The excursion lasted 7 hours and 12 minutes. That brings the total time for the four spacewalks conducted thus far during Endeavour's mission to 25 hours and 36 minutes. It was the second career spacewalk for both astronauts on their initial spaceflights. Cassidy has accumulated 13 hours and 11 minutes of EVA time; Marshburn's score card stands at 14 hours and 5 minutes. The fifth and final EVA for the Endeavour mission is scheduled for Monday. Cassidy and Marshburn will perform that trek outside the spacecraft to install Japanese television camera equipment on the new Exposed Facility and deploy cargo attachment fixtures on the station.
EVA BEGINS. The spacewalkers switched their suits to internal battery power at 7:33 a.m. EDT, marking the official start time for today's EVA by Chris Cassidy and Tom Marshburn. This is the fifth of five spacewalks planned during Endeavour's mission at the International Space Station.
EVA ENDS. Repressurization of the Quest airlock module is underway, marking the official end of today's spacewalk by Chris Cassidy and Tom Marshburn at 12:27 p.m. EDT. The excursion lasted 4 hours and 54 minutes. That brings the total time for the five spacewalks conducted during Endeavour's mission to 30 hours and 30 minutes. It was the third career spacewalk for both astronauts on their initial spaceflights. Cassidy has accumulated 18 hours and 5 minutes of EVA time; Marshburn's score card stands at 18 hours and 59 minutes.
UNDOCKING! Shuttle Endeavour and the International Space Station are parting company after 10 days, 23 hours and 39 minutes of being linked together high above Earth. The shuttle's construction visit installed an external science deck to complete Japan's Kibo laboratory facilities, pre-staged critical spare parts for the outpost and replaced aging batteries in the power grid. Endeavour is due home at the Kennedy Space Center on Friday morning, weather permitting. The undocking occurred on time as the two spacecraft flew 218 miles over the Indian Ocean. Endeavour is 25 feet from the station as it slowly backs away. The shuttle is headed to a point about 400 feet away where it will fire thrusters to begin an arc above the station for today's flyaround in about 20 minutes. Endeavour is 150 feet from the station, continuing to back away at 0.2 feet per second.
Stunning live television is being received from a camera in Endeavour's payload bay. The shuttle is casting a shadow on the giant solar wings and the new science deck added to the Japanese Kibo laboratory during this mission are among the wonders seen in this footage.
Прикольно! Видно как "Индевор" отошёл от станции и начал притормаживать. Станция удаляется от него и уходит "вверх" (вид с камеры Индевора). Нос Индевора направлен к Земле (вид со станции).
The shuttle is 614 feet beneath the station now, continuing its circle around the complex as the two spacecraft fly 221 miles above the North Atlantic.
