Description : (La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais)

(04/28/1998) -- The SPACEHAB Single Module is lowered into the payload canister in KSC's Space Station Processing Facility. It will be joined in the canister by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer-01 payload before being moved to Launch Pad 39A for the STS-91 mission, scheduled to launch June 2 at around 6:04 p.m. EDT. SPACEHAB is used mainly as a large pressurized cargo container for science, logistical equipment and supplies to be exchanged between the orbiter Discovery and the Russian Space Station Mir. The nearly 10-day flight of STS-91 also is scheduled to return the sixth American, Mission Specialist Andrew Thomas, Ph.D., aboard the Russian orbiting outpost safely to Earth
