About this work
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -- Lights surrounding Launch Pad 39A create shadows from Space Shuttle Discovery after rollback of the Rotating Service Structure. Seen extending to the orbiter is the orbiter access arm, ending at the White Room, an environmental chamber that mates with the orbiter and allows personnel to enter the crew compartment. Above the external tank, the “beanie cap” is poised, waiting for loading of the propellants.
