KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- In the transfer aisle of the Vehicle Assembly Building at KSC, an overhead crane raises external tank No. 120 from its transporter. The tank will be lifted into a checkout cell. ET-120 will be used to launch Space Shuttle Discovery on mission STS-120 in October. The mission is the 23rd to the International Space Station and will launch an Italian-built, U.S. multi-port module known as Harmony for the station. Christened after a school contest, Harmony will provide attachment points for European and Japanese laboratory modules. NASA/George Shelton
