CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – STS-127 Mission Specialist Julie Payette takes her turn practice driving the M-113 armored personnel carrier, which is part of the training on emergency egress procedures. Payette represents the Canadian Space Agency. Behind her is Pilot Doug Hurley. The crew members of space shuttle Endeavour's STS-127 mission are taking turns driving the M-113. An M-113 will be available to transport the crew to safety in the event of a contingency on the pad before their launch. The crew is at NASA's Kennedy Space Center for a launch dress rehearsal called the terminal countdown demonstration test, or TCDT, which includes the emergency egress training and equipment familiarization. The STS-127 mission is the final of three flights dedicated to the assembly of the Japanese Kibo laboratory complex. Endeavour's launch is targeted for June 13.
