Title : At the Shuttle Landing Facility

Caption :

(03/13/2002) -- At the Shuttle Landing Facility, the S5 truss segment for the International Space Station passes in front of the mate/demate device as it begins its move to the Space Station Processing Facility. There it will be fit checked for a Photo-Voltaic Radiator Grapple Fixture. It will also undergo a fit check to a truss simulator to ensure that it will fit properly with the S4 and S6 truss segments. S5 is scheduled for launch in October 2003 on mission STS-118. It will be the tenth truss assembled in an 11-truss structure
