At left is Cindy Begley, lead EVA flight controller. The tiles are part of the Thermal Protection System on the orbiter. Behind Camarda are Pilot James Kelly (far left) and Commander Eileen Collins (right). They and other crew members are at KSC for Crew Equipment Interface Test activities. During CEIT, the crew has an opportunity to get a hands-on look at the orbiter and equipment they will be working with on the mission. Return to Flight Mission STS-114 will carry the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module Raffaello, filled with supplies for the International Space Station, and a replacement Control Moment Gyroscope.
