STS-92 Crew Activity Report/Flight Day 10 Highlights

Abstract

On this tenth day of the STS-92 mission, the flight crew, Commander Brian Duffy, Pilot Pamela A. Melroy, and Mission Specialists Koichi Wakata, Leroy Chiao, Peter J.K. Wisoff, Michael E. Lopez-Alegria, and William S. McArthur prepare for the undocking of Discovery from the International Space Station (ISS) as Lopez-Alegria is seen closing the hatch on the Unity Module. A slow sweep of the outside of the ISS shows the space station in detail against the backdrop of a dark Earth where the lights of a city shine. Lopez-Alegria closes the outer hatch and Discovery undocks from the ISS. As the two separate, the ISS is seen orbiting across a beautiful dark blue Earth.
