Summary
| Description |
English: The Space Shuttle Columbia (left), slated for mission STS-35, is rolled past the Space Shuttle Atlantis on its way to Pad 39A. Atlantis, slated for mission STS-38, is parked in front of bay three of the Vehicle Assembly Building following its rollback from Pad 39A for repairs to the liquid hydrogen lines. First motion of Atlantis from the pad was at 10:14 p.m. August 8. It arrived at the VAB at 4 a.m. August 9. First motion of Columbia leaving the VAB for the pad was at 5:47 a.m. Columbia is due to arrive at the pad at noon August 9. Once Columbia is hard down at the pad, Atlantis will be moved into the VAB for destack operations. When Columbia reaches the pad, its payload bay doors will be opened and servicing of the ASTRO-1 payload will begin. Also, portions of the Shuttle interface verification test not completed in the VAB will be conducted.
Français : La navette spatiale Columbia (à gauche), prévue pour la mission STS-35 (STS : Space Transportation System), passe devant la navette spatiale Atlantis en route vers la rampe de lancement 39A. Atlantis, prévue pour la mission STS-38, est stationnée devant la baie trois du bâtiment d'assemblage des véhicules après avoir été retirée de la rampe de lancement 39A pour des réparations sur les conduites d'hydrogène liquide. Le premier déplacement de la navette Atlantis depuis la rampe de lancement a eu lieu à 22 h 14 le 8 août. Elle est arrivée au bâtiment d'assemblage des véhicules (VAB) à 4 h du matin le 9 août. Le premier déplacement de la navette Columbia depuis le VAB vers la rampe de lancement a eu lieu à 5 h 47. La navette Columbia devrait arriver à la rampe de lancement à midi le 9 août. Une fois la navette Columbia installée sur la rampe de lancement, la navette Atlantis sera déplacée vers le VAB pour les opérations de démontage. Lorsque Columbia atteindra la rampe de lancement, les portes de sa soute seront ouvertes et la maintenance de la charge utile ASTRO-1 commencera. De plus, certaines parties du test de vérification de l'interface de la navette qui n'ont pas été effectuées au VAB seront réalisées. |
