About this work
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Kennedy Space Center Director Bob Cabana, right, shows a space shuttle low-temperature reusable surface insulation LRSI tile to Florida’s Lt. Gov. Jennifer Carroll during a tour of Kennedy’s Orbiter Processing Facility-1. The tile is part of the shuttle’s thermal protection system which covers the shuttle’s exterior and protects it from the heat of re-entry. The tour coincided with Carroll’s visit to Kennedy for a meeting with Cabana.
