About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — Across the Turn Basin at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center looms the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). In front of the massive doors is Space Shuttle Discovery, atop the Mobile Launcher Platform, wending its way slowly to Launch Pad 39B. First motion out of the VAB was at 2:04 p.m. EDT. The Mobile Launcher Platform is moved by the Crawler-Transporter underneath. The Crawler is 20 feet high, 131 feet long and 114 feet wide.
