At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, technicians are preparing to install the payload for the STS-133 mission into space shuttle Discovery's cargo bay at Launch Pad 39A. After the payload is installed the canister will be removed. The rotating service structure is scheduled to be closed around the shuttle Saturday morning and installation of the payload into Discovery is planned for Monday morning.
At NASA's Johnson Space Center, the STS-133 crew members will continue their bench review of flight equipment.
Managers will meet on Oct. 25 for the agency-level Flight Readiness Review to discuss the shuttle and station's status and officially set the launch date.
