CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – – Inside Orbiter Processing Facility-1 at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, a crane is used to lift a sling holding one of two orbital maneuvering system (OMS) pods that will be re-installed on space shuttle Discovery. The OMS pods were returned from White Sands Space Harbor in New Mexico where they underwent a complete deservicing and cleaning. The work is part of the Space Shuttle Program’s transition and retirement processing of shuttle Discovery. Discovery is being prepared for display at Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum, Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Va. For more information, visit http:__www.nasa.gov_shuttle.
