About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — Inside the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB), a segment of a Solid Rocket Booster (SRB) is prepared for lifting. This right aft center segment will be stacked with the aft booster that arrived in the VAB Nov. 22 for the Return to Flight mission STS-114. Two SRBs are stacked on the Mobile Launch Platform and later joined by the External Tank.. The twin 149-foot tall, 12-foot diameter SRBs provide the main propulsion system during launch.
