About this work
STS-106 Pilot Scott D. Altman is poised to take his turn at driving the M113, an armored personnel carrier, that is part of emergency egress training duringTerminal Countdown Demonstration Test (TCDT) activities. The tracked vehicle could be used by the crew in the event of an emergency at the pad during which the crew must make a quick exit from the area. The TCDT also provides simulated countdown exercises and opportunities to inspect the mission payloads in the orbiter’s payload bay.
