Default Space station trivia
I don't know why this came up during un-docking this morning, but Colin (mission ops mission manager) pointed out the fact that the space station now weighs 612,000 pounds and has about as much area as a 747 (ya gotta include everything, including the Soyuz escape vehicle). I think he said 27,900 cubic feet, but I was somewhat pre-occupied watching the fly-around. The shuttle undocked at 0642 central.

Landing is 1015 central time Saturday at Kennedy.
