Hydrazine Loading at Launch Pad Today

Technicians at NASA Kennedy Space Center’s Launch Pad 39A will load hydrazine into space shuttle Discovery’s hydraulic power units this morning.

Discovery is targeted to launch on its STS-133 mission to the International Space Station on Feb. 24, 2011.

At NASA’s Johnson Space Center, the STS-133 crew is reviewing robotics tasks for the mission’s spacewalks in the Virtual Reality Lab today and brushing up on the stowage configuration for cargo being taken to the station in the Leonardo Permanent Multipurpose Module.
