The joined crews of Discovery and the International Space Station will say arrivederci today in advance of the shuttle's planned departure from the outpost early Monday.
Look for the crews to gather in the station around 1:28 p.m. today for a final farewell ceremony. Hatches between the spacecraft will swing shut at 1:43 p.m.
Discovery is scheduled to undock from the station at 5:32 a.m. Monday and then land at Kennedy Space Center at 1:02 p.m. Wednesday.
