Crew to Check Thermal Protection System Today

Today the crew will perform the standard scan of the space shuttle’s thermal protection system using the Orbiter Boom Sensor System attached to the end of Endeavour’s robotic arm. While the inspection is underway, Mission Specialists Mike Fincke and Drew Feustel will work on preparing the spacesuits onboard the shuttle that will be transferred to the International Space Station after docking Wednesday for use during the mission’s four spacewalks.
