KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- In the transfer aisle of the Vehicle Assembly Building, a worker packs type 2 ablator over the bolts around the "manhole" or cover on the bottom of external tank number 119. The manhole was removed to access the area where the tank's four liquid hydrogen engine cutoff sensors were replaced. The tank is being prepared to launch Space Shuttle Discovery on mission STS-121 in July. Photo credit: NASA/Jim Grossmann
