About this work

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Technicians monitor the progress as Space shuttle Endeavour is backed away from the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida so that it can be towed to Orbiter Processing Facility-2 (OPF-2). Shuttle Endeavour will remain in OPF-2 so that the orbiter maneuvering system (OMS) pods and forward reaction control system can be installed. Technicians also will offload water and Freon gas from lines located in Endeavour’s midbody.
