Description

Description: KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - STS-114 Mission Commander Eileen Collins is helped by the Closeout Crew with her launch and entry suit before entering Space Shuttle Discovery. The Return to Flight mission to the International Space Station carried the External Stowage Platform-2, equipped with spare part assemblies, and a replacement Control Moment Gyroscope contained in the Lightweight Multi-Purpose Experiment Support Structure and Multi-Purpose Logistics Module Raffaello, housing 15 tons of hardware and supplies that were transferred to the Station after the Shuttle arrived at the complex . On this mission, the crew performed inspections on-orbit for the first time of all of the Reinforced Carbon-Carbon (RCC) panels on the leading edge of the wings and the Thermal Protection System tiles using the new Canadian-built Orbiter Boom Sensor System and the data from 176 impact and temperature sensors. Mission Specialists also practiced repair techniques on RCC and tile samples during a spacewalk in the payload bay.
