Tanner has lost a bolt, washer and spring from part of the launch lock he was removing from the rotary joint.



Something like this happened to me as I was disassembling my pistol. The spring was found, but the bolt object is somewhere out in the swamp.

The get-ahead work is essentially complete now. The spacewalkers are starting the cleanup chores to bring this EVA to a close.



We are just now getting ready to go to work and they are done already.
