About this work

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -- Space Shuttle Discovery stands poised in the open door of the Vehicle Assembly Building before its crawl to Launch Pad 39B atop the mobile launcher platform and crawler transporter. Once at the pad, the orbiter, external tank and solid rocket boosters will undergo final preparations for the STS-103 launch targeted for Dec. 6, 1999, at 2:37 a.m. EST. The mission is a 'call-up' due to the need to replace and repair portions of the Hubble Space Telescope.
