[edit]DescriptionNASA Railroad 1 moving SRB segment cars at KSC (KSC-08PD-4067).jpg |
English: At the NASA Railroad yard at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, the locomotive moves the train for another cover to be lowered onto place around one of the solid rocket booster, or SRB, segments from the STS-126 launch. The segments will be taken to Utah. After a mission, the spent boosters are recovered, cleaned, disassembled, refurbished and reused for another launch. After the segments are hydrolased inside, they are placed on flatbed trucks and transferred to the NASA Railroad yard. The NASA Railroad locomotive backs up the rail cars and the segments are lowered onto the cars. After being covered for the trip, the segments are moved to Titusville for interchange with Florida East Coast Railway to begin the trip back to Utah. |
