About this work
The orbiter Discovery approaches the door of KSC's Vehicle Assembly Building after leaving the Orbiter Processing Facility Bay 2. Soon, it will be hoisted upright into a vertical position to be mated with an orange external tank and two white solid rocket boosters. Once mated, the orbiter becomes the Space Shuttle Discovery, slated for launch on STS-91, the ninth and final docking mission with the Russian Space Station Mir.
