CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – The Vehicle Assembly Building and Launch Control Center are contrasted against a blue sky at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Inside Firing Room 4, the Ground Systems Development and Operations Program is overseeing efforts to create a new firing room based on a multi-user concept. Construction workers have installed the framing and some of the insulation and inner walls. The design of Firing Room 4 will incorporate five control room areas that are flexible to meet current and future NASA and commercial user requirements. The equipment and most of the consoles from Firing Room 4 were moved to Firing Room 2 for possible future reuse. Photo credit: NASA/Dimitri Gerondidakis
