Cape Canaveral, Fla. - NASA Deputy Administrator Lori Garver, fourth from left, looks over NASA's Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) rover known as Curiosity as it sits in a workstand at the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. A United Launch Alliance Atlas V-541 configuration will be used to loft MSL into space. Curiosity’s 10 science instruments are designed to search for evidence on whether Mars has had environments favorable to microbial life, including chemical ingredients for life. The unique rover will use a laser to look inside rocks and release its gasses so that the rover’s spectrometer can analyze and send the data back to Earth. MSL is scheduled to launch from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida Nov. 25 with a window extending to Dec. 18 and arrival at Mars Aug. 2012.

Inside the Space Station Processing Facility, workers at each end of a workstand watch as the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) begins its descent onto it. The SRTM, which is the primary payload on mission STS-99, consists of a specially modified radar system that will fly onboard the Space Shuttle during the 11-day mission scheduled for launch in September 1999. The objective of this radar system is to obtain the most complete high-resolution digital topographic database of the Earth. It will gather data that will result in the most accurate and complete topographic map of the Earth's surface that has ever been assembled. SRTM is an international project spearheaded by the National Imagery and Mapping Agency and NASA, with participation of the German Aerospace Center DLR. SRTM will be making use of a technique called radar interferometry, wherein two radar images are taken from slightly different locations. Differences between these images allow for the calculation of surface elevation, or change. To get two radar images taken from different locations, the SRTM hardware will consist of one radar antenna in the shuttle payload bay and a second radar antenna attached to the end of a mast extended 60 meters (195 feet) out from the shuttle KSC-99pp0523

Arbeiter im Space Center der Martin Marietta Corporation in Denver, Colorado, senken den Flugartikel des Skylab Multiple Docking Adapters (MDA) in die horizontale Drehvorrichtung, um sich auf die Besatzung und die Funktionsüberprüfung vorzubereiten. Das vom Marshall Space Flight Center konzipierte und hergestellte und von Martin Marietta ausgestattete MDA beherbergte eine Reihe von Kontroll- und Staueinheiten für Experimente und bot einen Andockplatz für das Apollo Command Modul.
