COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY SATELLITE CTS SPA SOLAR PANEL

STS-97 Mission Specialist Marc Garneau, who is with the Canadian Space Agency, points to the Canadian robotic arm he will be working with during spacewalks to install solar arrays. At right is Commander Brent Jett. The arrays are part of the P6 Integrated Truss Segment that will be temporarily installed on the recently delivered Z1 truss, connecting them to the Unity module. Each more than 100 feet long, the arrays will capture energy from the sun and convert it to power for the Station. STS-97 is scheduled to launch Nov. 30 at about 10:06 p.m. EST KSC-00pp1751

TEST CELL W-2 IN THE COMPRESSOR & TURBINE C&T WING OF THE ENGINE RESEARCH BUILDING ERB

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - In Orbiter Processing Facility-1 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, United Space Alliance technicians cover a reinforced carbon carbon panel, or RCC panel, removed from a wing leading edge of space shuttle Atlantis. Inspection and maintenance of the RCC panels and the wing leading edge are standard procedure between shuttle missions. The RCC panels, components of the shuttle's thermal protection system, are placed in protective coverings while the structural edge of the wing -- the orange and green area behind the panels -- undergoes spar corrosion inspection to verify the structural integrity of the wing. Atlantis is next slated to deliver an Integrated Cargo Carrier and Russian-built Mini Research Module to the International Space Station on the STS-132 mission. The second in a series of new pressurized components for Russia, the module will be permanently attached to the Zarya module. Three spacewalks are planned to store spare components outside the station, including six spare batteries, a boom assembly for the Ku-band antenna and spares for the Canadian Dextre robotic arm extension. A radiator, airlock and European robotic arm for the Russian Multi-purpose Laboratory Module also are payloads on the flight. Launch is targeted for May 14, 2010.
