KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- The frustum of a forward skirt assembly of a spent solid rocket booster (SRB) from the STS-87 launch on Nov. 19 is transported into the Hangar AF area at Cape Canaveral Air Station. Hangar AF is a building originally used for Project Mercury, the first U.S. manned space program. The SRBs are the largest solid propellant motors ever flown and the first designed for reuse. After a Shuttle is launched, the SRBs are jettisoned at two minutes, seven seconds into the flight. At six minutes and 44 seconds after liftoff, the spent SRBs, weighing about 165,000 lb., have slowed their descent speed to about 62 mph and splashdown takes place in a predetermined area. They are retrieved from the Atlantic Ocean by special recovery vessels and returned for refurbishment and eventual reuse on future Shuttle flights. Once at Hangar AF, the SRBs are unloaded onto a hoisting slip and mobile gantry cranes lift them onto tracked dollies where they are safed and undergo their fi

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - NASA's Pegasus barge moves through the bridge at Port Canaveral, Fla. The barge contains the external fuel tank designated ET-133 that will be used for space shuttle Atlantis' STS-129 mission. The barge is delivering the external tank to the Turn Basin dock at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida where it will be offloaded and moved into the Vehicle Assembly Building. The tank was shipped aboard the Pegasus from NASA's Michould Assembly Facility near New Orleans. Pegasus was towed to Port Canaveral by the Freedom Star Retrieval Ship.

Complete Scene Caption: The large modular ramp of the United States Naval Ship (USNS) Gordon (T-AKR 296) is in final position at the dock of Naval Weapons Station Charleston, South Carolina, and ready to accept the heavy United States Army equipment that will be loaded aboard. This is the first time that USNS Gordon will be loaded with an actual military load since being converted from a civilian cargo ship. USNS Gordon is one of 19 Large, Medium-Speed Roll-on/Roll-off Ships, or LMSR, which will be built or converted to Military Sealift Command standards by the year 2001 to offset the shortage of available ships used to transport outsized military equipment. The ship can carry an entire US Army Armor Task Force, including up to 58 tanks, 48 other tracked vehicles and more than 900 trucks and other wheeled vehicles. The ship is named in honor of MASTER Sergeant Gary I. Gordon, US Army, who was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor in 1994 for his gallantry in act

NASAs X-57 Maxwell, the agencys first all-electric X-plane and first crewed X-planed in two decades, is delivered to NASAs Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California in its Mod II configuration. The first of three primary modifications for the project, Mod II involves testing of the aircrafts cruise electric propulsion system. Delivery to NASA from prime contractor Empirical Systems Aerospace of San Luis Obispo, California, marks a major milestone for the project, at which point the vehicle is reintegrated for ground tests, to be followed by taxi tests, and eventually, flight tests. X-57s goal is to further advance the design and airworthiness process for distributed electric propulsion technology for general aviation aircraft, which can provide multiple benefits to efficiency, emissions, and noise.

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - A frustum from one of the two solid rocket boosters that helped launch Space Shuttle Columbia on her maiden voyage is recovered at sea on April 13, by one of the two recovery ships, UTC Freedom and UTC Liberty, specifically built for the purpose. The frustum, located just aft of the nose cone, contains the main parachute that lowers the expended rocket casing into the sea for recovery and reuse. Columbia was launched April 12 on mission STS-1, known as a shuttle systems test flight. The flight seeks to demonstrate safe launch into orbit and safe return of the orbiter and crew and verify the combined performance of the entire shuttle vehicle -- orbiter, solid rocket boosters and external tank.
