The seven STS-121 crew members, who hope to celebrate July 4th by launching aboard Discovery, suited up before leaving the Operations and Checkout Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. From there they travel in a convoy aboard a special van to Launch Pad 39B, a 25-minute drive accompanied by a helicopter escort.
