Seen from below, space shuttle Discovery is lowered into High Bay 1 of the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. In the bay, Discovery will be attached to the external fuel tank and solid rocket boosters already stacked on the mobile launcher platform before it is rolled out to Launch Pad 39B in preparation for the STS-128 mission to the International Space Station. The shuttle will carry in its payload bay the Leonardo Multi-Purpose Logistics Module containing life support racks and science racks and the Lightweight Multi-Purpose Experiment Support Structure Carrier.
