CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – In the White Room on NASA Kennedy Space Center's Launch Pad 39A, STS-128 Mission Specialist Nicole Stott is helped getting into her parachute harness before entering space shuttle Discovery. The White Room is at the end of the orbiter access arm and provides entry into the shuttle. The crew is at Kennedy to take part in the terminal countdown demonstration test, or TCDT, which includes equipment familiarization, emergency exit training and a simulated countdown. On the STS-128 mission, Discovery will deliver 33,000 pounds of equipment to the station, including science and storage racks, a freezer to store research samples, a new sleeping compartment and the COLBERT treadmill. Launch is targeted for late August. Photo credit: NASA/Kim Shiflett KSC-2009-4539

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - NASA's Morpheus lander, a vertical test bed vehicle, is moved into a building at the Shuttle Landing Facility, or SLF, at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Morpheus is designed to demonstrate new green propellant propulsion systems and autonomous landing and an Autonomous Landing and Hazard Avoidance Technology, or ALHAT, system. Checkout of the prototype lander has been ongoing at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston in preparation for its first free flight. The SLF site will provide the lander with the kind of field necessary for realistic testing. Project Morpheus is one of 20 small projects comprising the Advanced Exploration Systems, or AES, program in NASA’s Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate. AES projects pioneer new approaches for rapidly developing prototype systems, demonstrating key capabilities and validating operational concepts for future human missions beyond Earth orbit.

Zusammenfassung

Taucher der US-Marine trainieren im Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory am Johnson Space Center der NASA in Houston. Marinetaucher, Sanitäter der Luftwaffe und Rettungsschwimmer der Küstenwache üben mit einer Testversion des Orion-Raumschiffes die Bergung von Orion. Das Training wird dem Team helfen, sich auf den "Underway Recovery Test 5" für die Exploration Mission 1 an Bord der USS San Diego im Pazifik vor der Küste Kaliforniens im Oktober vorzubereiten. Das Ground Systems Development and Operations Program bereitet gemeinsam mit der US Navy und Lockheed Martin das Bergungsteam, die Hardware und den Betrieb auf die EM-1-Bergung vor.
