CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Workers lift a solar array fairing while another is prepared inside the processing hangar used by Space Exploration Technologies, or SpaceX, at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Fla. The fairing will be installed on the Dragon spacecraft undergoing launch preparations inside the hangar. The spacecraft will launch on the upcoming SpaceX CRS-2 mission. The flight will be the second commercial resupply mission to the International Space Station by SpaceX. NASA has contracted for a total of 12 commercial resupply flights from SpaceX and eight from the Orbital Sciences Corp. Photo credit: NASA/Kim Shiflett KSC-2013-1108

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- In the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, workers connect an overhead crane to the Kibo Japanese Experiment Module - Pressurized Module. The module, part of the payload for space shuttle Discovery’s STS-124 mission, will be lifted, moved and placed in the payload canister for transportation to Launch Pad 39A. On the mission, the STS-124 crew will transport the Kibo module as well as the Japanese Remote Manipulator System to the International Space Station to complete the Kibo laboratory. The launch of Discovery is targeted for May 31. Photo credit: NASA/Kim Shiflett KSC-08pd0987

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- As part of Crew Equipment Interface Test (CEIT) activities at SPACEHAB, members of the STS-106 crew check out a Maximum Envelope Support Structure (MESS) rack they will be using during their mission to the International Space Station. Seen here (with backs to camera, in uniform) are Mission Specialist Richard A. Mastracchio, Pilot Scott D. Altman, Boris V. Morukov, and Edward T. Lu (at right). Also taking part in the CEIT are Commander Terrence W. Wilcutt and Mission Specialists Yuri I. Malenchenko and Daniel C. Burbank. Malenchenko and Morukov represent the Russian Aviation and Space Agency. STS-106 is scheduled to launch Sept. 8, 2000, at 8:31 a.m. EDT from Launch Pad 39B on an 11-day mission. The seven-member crew will prepare the Space Station for its first resident crew and begin outfitting the newly arrived Zvezda Service Module. They will perform support tasks on orbit, transfer supplies and prepare the Zvezda living quarters for the first long-duration crew, dubbed “Expedition One,” which is due to arrive at the Station in late fall KSC00pp0952

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- STS-95 Mission Specialist Stephen K. Robinson injects water into the base of the seed container where plants will grow during the upcoming mission. This is part of the Biological Research in Canisters (BRIC) experiment which is at the SPACEHAB Payload Processing Facility, Cape Canaveral, Fla. This experiment will fly in SPACEHAB in Discovery’s payload bay. STS-95 is scheduled to launch from pad 39B at KSC on Oct. 29, 1998. The mission also includes research payloads such as the Spartan solar-observing deployable spacecraft, the Hubble Space Telescope Orbital Systems Test Platform, the International Extreme Ultraviolet Hitchhiker, as well as experiments on space flight and the aging process KSC-98pc864

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - The STS-120 crew is at Kennedy for a crew equipment interface test, or CEIT. Standing under space shuttle Discovery in Orbiter Processing Facility bay 3, from left, are Expedition 16 Flight Engineer Daniel M. Tani, Pilot George D. Zamka and Mission Specialist Paolo A. Nespoli, a European Space Agency astronaut from Italy. Among the activities standard to a CEIT are harness training, inspection of the thermal protection system and camera operation for planned extravehicular activities, or EVAs. The STS-120 mission will deliver the Harmony module, christened after a school contest, which will provide attachment points for European and Japanese laboratory modules on the International Space Station. Known in technical circles as Node 2, it is similar to the six-sided Unity module that links the U.S. and Russian sections of the station. Built in Italy for the United States, Harmony will be the first new U.S. pressurized component to be added. The STS-120 mission is targeted to launch on Oct. 20.

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- In the Orbiter Processing Facility, members of the STS-122 crew look over cameras that will be used during the mission. From left are Mission Specialists Hans Schlegel and Rex Walheim. Schlegel represents the European Space Agency. The crew is at Kennedy Space Center to take part in a crew equipment interface test, which helps familiarize them with equipment and payloads for the mission. Among the activities standard to a CEIT are harness training, inspection of the thermal protection system and camera operation for planned extravehicular activities, or EVAs. The mission will carry and install the Columbus Lab, a multifunctional, pressurized laboratory that will be permanently attached to Node 2 of the space station to carry out experiments in materials science, fluid physics and biosciences, as well as to perform a number of technological applications. It is Europe’s largest contribution to the construction of the International Space Station and will support scientific and technological research in a microgravity environment. STS-122 is targeted for launch in December. Photo credit: NASA/Kim Shiflett KSC-07pd2638

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – A full-size test mock-up of the Orion spacecraft moves from the Operations and Checkout Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The test article is on its way to the Multi-Payload Processing Facility, or MPPF, to test the path flight hardware will take during future launch processing. Orion is the exploration spacecraft designed to carry crews to space beyond low Earth orbit. It will provide emergency abort capability, sustain the crew during the space travel and provide safe re-entry from deep space return velocities. The first unpiloted test flight of the Orion is scheduled to launch in 2014 atop a Delta IV rocket and in 2017 on a Space Launch System rocket.
