CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Workers outside the Hypergol Maintenance Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida use a crane to lift the shipping container off of space shuttle Discovery's orbital maneuvering system (OMS) pod. The OMS has been returned from White Sands Space Harbor in New Mexico where it underwent a complete deservicing and cleaning. The work is part of the Space Shuttle Program’s transition and retirement processing of space shuttle Discovery. The shuttle will go to the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum, Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Va. For more information, visit http://www.nasa.gov/shuttle. Photo credit: NASA/Jim Grossmann
