There's a container ship behind the carrier. You can see the bow on the left

Yeah I was really disappointed when I saw that. Went to a show on their "farewell tour" last year, and they were really hyping up the fact it would be the last opportunity to see them live. Tickets were already stupid expensive. Not only was that a complete lie, but now they're playing at this ridiculous monolith? I feel slightly betrayed.

I was curious about that too. They look like Torq-set to me, being that the slots are offset from the center of the screw. If that's the case they're shouldn't be any cam out at all.

In either case the fasteners that were stuck appear to be Hex head, and the phillips looking fasteners just held a protective cover in place (?)

I would imagine NASA would know better than to use Philips for anything lol.

By the way there is a link on the page to more images of the assembly

I really want to see the tool they developed to do this.

Edit: This NASA blog page has some images and more details of the tools themselves

Listen I'm not on anyones side cause I don't know you but does this engagement not count as a petty argument and the precursor to a flamewar

I actually kinda like ambient mode when watching on my phone

Oh I definitely agree, In some circumstances it's pointless

I think it's more to do with it being possible evidence in an unsolved crime, at least that's a pretty common theme here in the states

----TICKET HAS BEEN CLAIMED----

Hey all, Darkstar Orchestra is playing tomorrow at the Rose Amphitheatre in Dayton Ohio. I bought a ticket and I can't go, but I hate to see it go to waste. Anyone want it?
