KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - During Atlantis's move to the Vehicle Assembly Building, a pause in the rollover enables the orbiter processing team to pose for a photograph. In the VAB, the orbiter will be lifted into high bay 3 for mating to the external fuel tank and solid rocket boosters. Atlantis' launch window begins Aug. 28. During its 11-day mission to the International Space Station, the STS-115 crew of six astronauts will install the Port 3/4 truss segment with its two large solar arrays.
