Endeavour performed a series of burns that allowed the shuttle to close in on the Hubble Space Telescope at a rate of nautical mile (km) per 95-minute orbit. The crew made a detailed inspection of the payload and checked out both the robot arm and the spacesuits. All of Endeavour's systems functioned well as the crew got a full day's sleep in preparation for the evening's rendezvous. At the end of Flight Day 2, Endeavour was nautical mile (km) behind HST and closing.
