Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — Workers maneuver the giant-sized sprocket (left side) and gear (right side) for installation on the Crawler-Transporter behind it. The drive sprocket turns the belt on the CT. The sprocket is mated to the gear that attaches to the drive motor. The CT travels on eight tracked tread belts, each containing 57 tread belt shoes, for a combined weight of 957,600 pounds.
