Spacecraft preparations are moving ahead as technicians at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida perform closeout work in the aft and forward sections of the space shuttle Discovery. The shuttle is slated to be carried to the Vehicle Assembly Building on Sept. 8 where it will be connected to its external fuel tank and a pair of solid rocket boosters. Liftoff is targeted for Nov. 1.
Discovery's astronauts will rehearse the first spacewalk of the mission inside the large pool at Johnson Space Center's Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory in Houston.
