KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -- The STS-105 and Expedition Three crews arrive at Kennedy Space Center's Shuttle Landing Facility to make final preparations for their launch to the International Space Station. Cosmonaut Vladimir Dezhurov walks away from the T-38 jet that brought him to KSC. On mission STS-105, Discovery will be transporting the Expedition Three crew and several payloads and scientific experiments to the ISS. The Early Ammonia Servicer (EAS) tank, which will support the thermal control subsystems until a permanent system is activated, will be attached to the Station during two spacewalks. The three-member Expedition Two crew will be returning to Earth aboard Discovery after a five-month stay on the Station
