NASA has determined the underbelly of Atlantis is in perfect shape to come home. There is still a slightly torn heat shield tile on one of the engine pods, but NASA seems comfortable that's not cause for real concern.
On the ill astronaut front, NASA still hasn't named the astronaut or revealed the problem, but the ESA website has reported that one of its astronauts had a medical issue that was incompatible was performing a spacewalk yesterday. Hans Schlegel, 56, is expected to be able to take his turn outside later in the mission.
Hopefully, STS-122 will have smooth sailing from now on.
