About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — The redesigned External Tank is raised above its transporter in the Vehicle Assembly Building. It will be lifted into the 'checkout cell' where the tank’s mechanical, electrical and thermal protection systems are inspected. The tank will also undergo new processes resulting from its redesign, including inspection of the bipod heater and External Tank separation camera. The tank will be prepared for 'mating' to the Shuttle’s Solid Rocket Boosters.
