About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — Space Shuttle Discovery looms large in this closeup as it rolls to Launch Pad 39B. The shuttle rests on the mobile launcher platform. Underneath is the crawler, providing transport via the crawlerway. First motion of the shuttle from NASA's Vehicle Assembly Building was at 12:45 p.m. EDT. The rollout is an important step before launch of Discovery on mission STS-121 to the International Space Station.
