CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – At Launch Pad 39B at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the crawler track panels have been removed and construction workers continue to repair the concrete on the surface of the pad. The flame trench deflector that was located below and between the left and right crawlerway tracks has been removed.     Pad B is being refurbished to support NASA’s Space Launch System and other launch vehicles. The Ground Systems Development and Operations, or GSDO, Program at Kennedy is leading the center’s transformation to safely handle a variety of rockets and spacecraft.
