Okay. Stay safe!
Astronaut was just asking when the 'ammonia de-ac' would commence.
oh no! I thought they already got "spritzed"?!
‘Atlantis, signing off.”
That’s a wrap, people!
The radiator cold-soak provided cooling during entry through landing plus six minutes when ammonia boiler system (ABS) B was activated using general purpose computer (GPC) control. To minimize the thermal stress on the long-duration flight crew, ammonia cooling was activated earlier than usual by selecting the high outlet temperature set point (57 °F) on both FCL radiator flow controllers when the radiator controller outlet temperatures exceeded 40 °F. This configuration provided the necessary heat load for the ABS and avoided the increased cabin temperature and humidity transient that normally occurs during postlanding operation.
So maybe that's all about cooling the cabin during landing.
Give it a try.

So, are they space aliens, or illegal aliens? Cleaning up the cooties Americans are afraid to clean up?
COOL!
The dog liked it.
That’s just what they want you to think. The Aliens don’t do well in hot temperatures. That’s why they landed out in the desert, the aliens couldn’t run away if they wanted to, they’d melt.
Here's what we heard. It's on quicktime player, link below.
Here is the link to the twin sonic booms we heard from our home. Don't know how good of sound system you have but my kids has major speakers, sub woofers etc and sounds great.
Give it a try.

It freaked my dog out!
Glad you could hear what we did. It was really neat, and LOUD>
Thanks for posting.
Heard that too.
Sounded very odd but is probably nothing?
On my kids computer sound system it sounds like we heard it. On different systems, your mileage may vary.
Uh oh.... 2 of the astronauts were caught trying to bring back more than the allowed amount of duty-free booze.
I heard them! I heard a ....... space dog too?
Was that, could it have been....Astro???
:)
Hey, thanks for that...that’s really neat.
I stand corrected.
Excellent! Sounds like a labrador you got there.
Yeah, if you turn the volume up, you can hear it shake the windows of my house...Dog went nutty.
