Discovery crew cabin camera view of the crystal module and space station mirror, 65 feet away with 30 feet to go.
Transcript
This is a view from one of the cameras inside the crew cabin of Discovery. This provides a much better view of the crystal module. This rudiment should be liquid. The Discovery is now 65 feet away from the space station mirror. That means we only have about 30 or so feet to go before we reach our point of closest approach. This particular picture is from mirror. And I'll run to go activities continue very smoothly. I'll orbit our systems to our functioning as expected. It was clear that I had to run to the construct. Even when there was no time for kowls, he got the clear view for the previous user to do something! My help has not finished yet and they will have to turn in after our time. This is Michigan Trail Houston. This television view from Discovery shows the mirror space station that is believed to be the mirror space station moving out of the screen now at the bottom of the picture. I know actually about in the center of the frame just below the center at the lower end of the picture. In the instrumentation and communication officer here in Michigan Trail I believe that that is the mirror space station is seen from Discovery Discovery currently about 190 nautical miles from the station and closing in at the right of 79 nautical miles per orbit. Shaking on your video when the jet-ter-fire do you see the camera moving and this particular activity actually has very little activity in it for the space walking astronauts. This exercise requires them to remain as still as they can without performing any work or anything besides watching as the earth rolls by to allow so that they don't generate any body heat or any extra body heat that is. Basically our objective here is to see how cold they get and especially how cold their hands get when they're put in a very cold place in a very passive position.
