Well, I'd like to just thank the folks at Kennedy Space Center for a, for a really, really clean vehicle.

00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:15.000
This is my fourth flight and I've done four walkarounds, and I've never seen a vehicle that looked as clean as this one did.

00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:21.000
And the, and the vehicle was clean all the way through the flight. We had very, very few problems.

00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:27.000
And I'd like to thank all the folks here around NASA's shuttle program for, for providing us with a great vehicle.

00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:33.000
We had two major objectives on this flight. The first one was to complete the return-to-flight test

00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:39.000
objectives that 114 started, and the second one was to get us ready back for space station assembly.

00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:44.000
And I think we accomplished both of those objectives and we're ready to go to assemble station,

00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:47.000
and we're ready to start flying shuttles on a more regular basis.

00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:53.000
And finally, I'd like to thank this crew standing here. They were absolutely superb the entire flight.

00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:59.000
I couldn't have asked more out of them. They were nearly perfect, and they got everything done that we needed to get done.

00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:04.000
I actually had to throttle them back to give them a little bit of time off to keep them from working real hard.

00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:08.000
But they were all focused, they did a great job and it was a privilege for me to serve with them.

00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:57.000
Thanks a lot, and we're going to go see our families now. Have a good day. Bye.

00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:00.000
And the astronauts are now leaving the Shuttle Landing Facility.

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:12.000
Of course, again, they're going to be going back to greet their families who are waiting for them at their crew quarters.

00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:17.000
