KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- Aboard a transporter, external tank No. 120 makes the turn from near the NASA News Center parking lot in the Launch Complex 39 Area to the Vehicle Assembly Building. There it will be lifted into a checkout cell. The tank arrived from the Michoud Assembly Facility near New Orleans, making the journey around the Florida peninsula in tow by the JA Bisso II tugboat. ET-120 will be used for launching Space Shuttle Discovery on mission STS-120 in October. NASA/Amanda Diller
