KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - As afternoon storm clouds sweep across a dune near Launch Pad 39A, Space Shuttle Endeavour is seen from the back side.  In front of it is the 290-foot-tall water tower that provides the deluge over the mobile launcher platform for sound suppression during liftoff.  The shuttle arrived at the pad in the early morning after an 8:30 p.m. rollout on July 10.  Endeavour is scheduled to launch on mission STS-118 on Aug. 7.  During the mission, Endeavour will carry into orbit the S5 truss, SPACEHAB module and external stowage platform 3. The mission is the 22nd flight to the International Space Station and will mark the first flight of Mission Specialist Barbara Morgan, the teacher-turned-astronaut whose association with NASA began more than 20 years ago.  STS-118 will be the first flight since 2002 for Endeavour, which has undergone extensive modifications, including the addition of safety upgrades already added to orbiters Discovery and Atlantis.

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -   After rollback of the rotating service structure on Launch Pad 39B, Space Shuttle Atlantis shines in the late afternoon sun.  The RSS provides protected access to the orbiter for changeout and servicing of payloads at the pad and then is rolled away before liftoff. At right is the 300,000-gallon water tank that releases a deluge of water across the mobile launcher platform during liftoff to aid sound suppression.  Atlantis is scheduled to launch Sept. 6 at 12:29 p.m. EDT on mission STS-115.  During the mission, Atlantis' astronauts will deliver and install the 17.5-ton, bus-sized P3/P4 integrated truss segment on the station. The girder-like truss includes a set of giant solar arrays, batteries and associated electronics and will provide one-fourth of the total power-generation capability for the completed station. This mission is the 116th space shuttle flight, the 27th flight for orbiter Atlantis, and the 19th U.S. flight to the International Space Station. STS-115 is scheduled to last 11 days with a planned KSC landing at about 8:03 a.m. EDT on Sept. 17.    Photo credit: NASA/Ken Thornsley KSC-06pd2045

Moments before launch, sparks from the external ignitors are visible below the engines of Space Shuttle Columbia. The ignitors burn off a hydrogen concentration outside the orbiter near the main engines. A cloud effect behind the Shuttle's solid rocket booster and access arm to the left is created by spray from the water deluge system. The launch of STS-93 was scrubbed at the T-7 second mark in the countdown due to an indication of a high concentration of hydrogen in an aft engine compartment. The reading was proven to be a false alarm. The launch is rescheduled for July 22 at 12:28 a.m KSC-99pasparklers

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. --  Smoke and steam billow across Launch Pad 39A as Space Shuttle Atlantis, trailing columns of fire from the solid rocket boosters, hurtles into the sky on mission STS-117 to the International Space Station.  At right is the water tank that provides the deluge over the mobile launcher platform for sound suppression during liftoff.  Liftoff was on-time at 7:38:04 p.m. EDT.The shuttle is delivering a new segment to the starboard side of the International Space Station's backbone, known as the truss. Three spacewalks are planned to install the S3/S4 truss segment, deploy a set of solar arrays and prepare them for operation. STS-117 is the 118th space shuttle flight, the 21st flight to the station, the 28th flight for Atlantis and the first of four flights planned for 2007.

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -  Around Launch Pad 39A, photographers pick their spot to snap shots of Space Shuttle Endeavour, which rolled to the pad over night.  First motion out of the Vehicle Assembly Building was at 8:10 p.m.  July 10, and the shuttle was hard down on the pad at 3:02 a.m. July 11.  At far left is the rotating service structure, which can be rolled around to enclose the shuttle for access during processing.  Barely visible behind it is the fixed service structure, topped by an 80-foot-tall lightning mast. At right is the 290-foot-tall water tank, which provides the deluge over the mobile launcher platform for sound suppression during liftoff.  The proximity of the water and brush and grass signify the close relationship of Kennedy Space Center and the Merritt Island National Wildlife Center, which surrounds it.   Endeavour is scheduled to launch on mission STS-118 on Aug. 7.  During the mission, Endeavour will carry into orbit the S5 truss, SPACEHAB module and external stowage platform 3.

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. --   The dawn sky over the Atlantic Ocean reveals Space Shuttle Endeavour sitting on Launch Pad 39A.  First motion out of the Vehicle Assembly Building was at 8:10 p.m.  July 10, and the shuttle was hard down on the pad at 3:02 a.m. July 11.  The orbiter access arm is already extended to the orbiter from the fixed service structure.  Peering just above the solid rocket booster on the left is the 290-foot-tall water tank.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -  A daylight view at NASA's Kennedy Space Center Launch Pad 39A shows the payload canister at left still attached to the payload changeout room where transfer of the payload will take place.  The payload comprises four carriers holding various equipment for the STS-125 mission aboard space shuttle Atlantis to service NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope.  At center is Atlantis, atop the mobile launcher platform that straddles the flame trench below. At right is the 300,000-gallon water tank that supplies the deluge of water for sound suppression during liftoff. The PCR is the enclosed, environmentally controlled portion of the rotating service structure that supports cargo delivery to the pad and subsequent vertical installation into the shuttle’s payload bay. Launch of Atlantis is targeted for Oct. 10. Photo credit: NASA/Jack Pfaller KSC-08pd2804

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the water tower (right) which supported the space shuttle's water deluge system still stands on Launch Pad 39B after the pad's deconstruction.    In 2009, the structure at the pad was no longer needed for NASA's Space Shuttle Program, so it is being restructured for future use. The new design will feature a "clean pad" for rockets to come with their own launcher, making it more versatile for a number of vehicles.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Modifications continue on the Multi-Payload Processing Facility, or MPPF, at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. A new emergency egress stairway has been constructed and a steel structure has been built around it so that walls can be added. The red pipes are the recently-installed fire deluge system. The gray pipes are the hazardous gas venting system.    Kennedy's Center Operations Directorate is overseeing upgrades to the MPPF for the Ground Systems Development and Operations Program. The extensive upgrades and modernizations will support processing of Orion spacecraft for NASA's exploration missions. The 19,647-square-foot building, originally constructed in 1995, primarily will be used for Orion hypergolic fueling, ammonia servicing and high-pressure gas servicing and checkout before being transported to the Vehicle Assembly Building for integration with the Space Launch System.
