Thanks for the updates. It is so very cool.

My son, who is 6, recently asked "Is infinity an even or odd number?"

He's a leftie and loves math

Cheers!

Niko

Okay, since Tom is steering clear of this one, my guess is that it was an unofficial "secret/special" communication to a girlfriend or family member of whoever said it.

So, Tom, on the next landing, make them say for me, "I fell of the turnip truck."

Actually, I just keep forgetting to ask when I'm with one of the astronauts. It's kinda stupid - I'm in a meeting daily with at least a couple of them.

When did ya hear it said? Was it by chance when they waved off the first landing? I'm thinking CAPCOM astronaut on the ground saying it...

It was during control communications in the last 5-10 minutes of the landing. I think the transmission came from the Endeavor, not the ground. Thanks!

Infinity is 42.

Jail key is an Irish ale.

Any more questions?



Blame it on the Italians - it's fun to watch them when they're mad. They argue with their hands.

Thanks for the update, and for keeping the space thang rockin'.

Dates changed today - STS-124 moves to VAB 4/26, to pad 5/3. 2 day bump. Launch is still 5/31. We got the foam issues resolved early.
