About this work
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Space shuttle Endeavour’s STS-126 commander, Chris Ferguson, arrives at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida aboard a T-38 jet trainer. Ferguson will pilot the Shuttle Training Aircraft, or STA, to practice landing a shuttle on the runway of the Shuttle Landing Facility. The STA is a Grumman American Aviation-built Gulf Stream II jet that was modified to simulate a shuttle’s cockpit, motion and visual cues, and handling qualities.
