About this work

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - In the payload changeout room, or PCR, on Launch Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, workers prepare the payload ground-handling mechanism, or PGHM, that will transfer the cargo in the payload canister. The cargo comprises four carriers holding various equipment for the STS-125 mission aboard space shuttle Atlantis to service NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. The PGHM removes payloads from a transportation canister and installs them into the shuttle.
