KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - The south wall of the Vehicle Assembly Building is bathed in light at night to allow workers on a scaffold to cover the holes with corrugated steel so the facility can be returned to performing operational activities. Xenon lights on the ground provide the illumination. The VAB lost 820 panels from the south wall during Frances, and 25 additional panels during Hurricane Jeanne. The VAB stands 525 feet tall. Central Florida, including Kennedy Space Center, was battered by four hurricanes between Aug. 13 and Sept. 26.
