STS-132 HD Flight day 11 Highlights!!



bsolutely stunning views!! -- The crew of space shuttle Atlantis awoke on flight day 11 and after a couple of hours of personal time, begun the late inspection of the shuttles wing leading edges and nose cap. The crew worked through the time line and finished the scans about two and a half hours ahead of schedule. By 5:50 a.m. EDT they had finished their look at the right wing, by 6:52 a.m. EDT the nose cap survey was complete and the left wing survey was finished at 7:17 a.m. EDT. The TPS survey was done using the shuttle arm and its OBSS extension. While the scans were going on, some of the crew was stowing items that were no longer needed or were transferred right before undocking. Spacewalkers Mike Good and Steve Bowen cleaned up and stowed their spacesuits for landing. The latter part of the crews day was spent with some off duty time.
