Day 123 We are inside, enjoying the traditional Bank Holiday weather:

Bank Holiday Weather

I had planned another power walk this evening, but it doesn't look promising. Which means I might not get much of a good night's sleep tonight :(

NASA have film up from the STS-132 TCDT, which happened a couple of weeks ago IIRC:



I can't believe we're into the finale missions! :'( Assuming they don't add another mission on the end, this is the final trip into space for Atlantis. Soooo sad. Although it's difficult not to get caught up in the usual buzz of the lead-up to lift-off (due 14th May), particularly as Commander for this mission is Ken Ham, one of the astronauts I met in Bradford. One thing that's not good about prep for this mission is that none of them are tweeting. I can't believe they're all shy (Garrett Reisman is noted for his non-shyness) so I don't know what's going on there.
