Arrival at the Pad

The crew of space shuttle Endeavour’s STS-130 mission is at the launch pad and took a quick elevator ride to the 195-foot level where NASA’s Closeout Crew waits for them in the White Room.

Last-minute adjustments will be made to the astronauts’ flight suits and an orange glow stick tucked into the pocket of each suit for safety by the Closeout Crew before they climb into the shuttle.

No technical issues are being reported and the forecast is still cooperating with only a 40 percent chance that weather will hamper an on-time liftoff at 4:14 a.m. EST.
