| KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -– The
Gaseous Oxygen (GOX) Vent Hood, also known as the "beanie cap,"
is drawn away from Shuttle Endeavour, clearing the way for launch.
Top priorities for the STS-108 (UF-1) mission of Endeavour are rotation
of the International Space Station Expedition 3 and Expedition 4
crews; bringing water, equipment and supplies to the station in
the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module Raffaello; and the crew's completion
of robotics tasks and a spacewalk to install thermal blankets over
two pieces of equipment at the bases of the Space Station's solar
wings. |
