KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - Workers prepare the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) spacecraft for re-mate with the Pegasus XL launch vehicle. The March 26 launch was delayed to enable protective covers to be added to the Optical Wheel Assembly (OWA) to avoid the possibility of a missing electrical cable fastener floating into and jamming the mechanism when GALEX is in orbit. Launch of GALEX is now scheduled for no earlier than April 26. KSC-03pd0993

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- At Astrotech, workers help guide an overhead crane to be attached to the Dawn spacecraft. Dawn will be lifted from its stand, moved and then mated to the upper stage booster for launch. Dawn is scheduled to launch July 7 from Pad 17-B on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. Dawn's goal is to characterize the conditions and processes of the solar system's earliest epoch by investigating in detail the largest protoplanets that have remained intact since their formations: asteroid Vesta and the dwarf planet Ceres. They reside in the extensive zone between Mars and Jupiter together with many other smaller bodies, called the asteroid belt. Photo credit: NASA/George Shelton KSC-07pd1604

description

Summary

The original finding aid described this as:

Description: Photographic documentation showing astronauts in Extravehicular Mobility Units (EMU) working on both Experimental Assembly of Structures in Extravehicular Activity (EASE) and on Assembly Concept for Construction of Erectable Space Structures (ACCESS) in the payload bay of the orbiter Atlantis during STS-61B. Views include: Mission Specialist (MS) Sherwood C. Spring (EVA-2) in an EMU works on ACCESS, with MS Jerry L. Ross (EVA-1) visible, wearing an EMU with stripes and working on ACCESS as well.
