At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, technicians at Launch Pad 39A will work today and throughout the weekend to finish loading space shuttle Discovery's hypergolic propellants.

Meanwhile, the STS-131 astronauts continue their training at their home base in Houston. Today, they'll get some flying time in T-38 training jets.

Discovery's launch on the next mission to the International Space Station is targeted for April 5.
