About this work

Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — In the Operations and Checkout Building at NASA Kennedy Space Center, STS-115 Pilot Christopher Ferguson adjusts his glove during suitup before heading to the launch pad for another attempt at liftoff. The launch attempt on Sept. 8 was scrubbed due to an issue with a fuel cut-off sensor system inside the external fuel tank. This is one of several systems that protect the shuttle's main engines by triggering their shutdown if fuel runs unexpectedly low.
