KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA.  -- During the second stage of a simulated emergency, known as Mode 4,  KSC personnel representing astronauts are treated at a triage area set up at Helipad 8, located near the fire station between Launch Pads 39A and 39B.  The emergency exercise began on Launch Pad 39A. The participants were helped off the pad and taken to the triage site.  The "injured" workers will be airlifted to participating area hospitals. The KSC rescue teams are practicing emergency procedures in the unlikely scenario of a mishap on the pad during a launch sequence.  The exercises are standard training procedures to assess and prepare emergency personnel, procedures and hardware.  Photo credit: NASA/Kim Shiflett KSC-07pd0811
