Mission managers extended Endeavour’s flight duration to 12 days to allow the crew to assist with additional maintenance tasks on the station, including work on a treadmill and replacing a failed compressor in one of the air conditioners in the Zvezda Service Module.  Kelly traveled over 4.8 million miles and orbited the earth 186 times over 11 days and 19+ hours.

Marillion: Distant Lights
Marillion: Distant Lights
Este es un disco Blu Ray en vivo del Marillion Weekend 2019 de Port Zelande y un espectáculo de Leicester. Estamos encantados, y algo aliviados, de presentar un registro del último fin de semana de Marillion, ¡de lo que se ha convertido en un pasado lejano! Esa es la mitad de la razón por la que llamamos al conjunto de dos películas 'Distant Lights'; la otra mitad, por supuesto, es un guiño a una letra del álbum Happiness Is The Road, que fue la pieza central del programa del domingo por la noche de 2019. Solo para anular cualquier especulación, la demora en el lanzamiento de estas películas no se debió tanto a un giro de los acontecimientos, sino a que todos se vieron consumidos por la creación de Una hora antes de que oscurezca en los últimos dos años.
