During the Crew Equipment Interface Test (CEIT) in the payload bay of Discovery, STS-95 Mission Specialist Stephen K. Robinson (right) checks a cable that can be used to close a hatch on the orbiter. Looking over his shoulder are Mission Specialist Pedro Duque (center), of the European Space Agency, and Keith Johnson (left), United Space Alliance-Houston. The CEIT gives astronauts an opportunity for a hands-on look at the payloads and equipment they will be using on orbit. The launch of the STS-95 mission, aboard Space Shuttle Discovery, is scheduled for Oct. 29, 1998. The mission includes research payloads such as the Spartan solar-observing deployable spacecraft, the Hubble Space Telescope Orbital Systems Test Platform, the International Extreme Ultraviolet Hitchhiker, as well as the SPACEHAB single module with experiments on space flight and the aging process KSC-98PC1017

US Air Force (USAF) STAFF Sergeant (SSGT) Dunblazier, of the 31st Logistics Readiness Squadron (LRS), Aviano Air Base (AB), Italy (ITA), loads a sample of fuel in the bench top shaker for the Fuel System Icing Inhibitor tests. The test is used to prevent free water in the fuel from freezing at high altitudes and acts as a biocyd, which keeps bacteria from growing in the fuel

Inspecting a Canister and Sample Collector
Interferometer tests standard gages for automobile manufacturers. Washington, D.C. May 28. I.J. Fullmer of the Bureau of Standards is shown with an interferometer by means of which differences in length are measured in terms of wave-lengths of light to the millionth of an inch. A four-inch square precision gage is being compared for length with the Bureau's standard 4 inch, which is rectangular in shape. These gages are tested against the master gages which the different auto manufacturers check their measuring devices so that the parts of the cars separately made can be, when assembled, fitted perfectly. The standard gage and the master gage are shwon being compared in the interferometer, 5/28/37
