KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - STS-111 Mission Specialist Philippe Perrin, with CNES, suits up again for the second launch attempt aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour on mission STS-111 to the International Space Station. This is Perrin's first Shuttle flight. This mission marks the 14th Shuttle flight to the Space Station and the third Shuttle mission this year. Mission STS-111 is the 18th flight of Endeavour and the 110th flight overall in NASA's Space Shuttle program. On mission STS-111, astronauts will deliver the Leonardo Multi-Purpose Logistics Module, the Mobile Base System (MBS), and the Expedition Five crew to the Space Station. During the seven days Endeavour will be docked to the Station, three spacewalks will be performed dedicated to installing MBS and the replacement wrist-roll joint on the Station's Canadarm2 robotic arm. Endeavour will also carry the Expedition 5 crew, who will replace Expedition 4 on board the Station. Expedition 4 crew members will return to Earth with the STS-111 crew. Liftoff is scheduled for 5:22 p.m. EDT from Launch Pad 39A

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- During a break in Terminal Countdown Demonstration Test activities, the STS-111 and Expedition 5 crews gather on Launch Pad 39A for a photo. Standing, left to right, are Expedition 5 crew members Sergei Treschev, Commander Valeri Korzun and Peggy Whitson, STS-111 Commander Kenneth Cockrell, Pilot Paul Lockhart, Mission Specialists Philippe Perrin and Franklin Chang-Diaz. Perrin is with the CNES, the French Space Agency. Expedition 5 will travel to the International Space Station on the mission as the replacement crew for Expedition 4, who will return to Earth aboard the orbiter Endeavour. The crews are taking part in Terminal Countdown Demonstration Test activities at the pad, which include emergency egress training and a simulated launch countdown. The mission is Utilization Flight 2, carrying supplies and equipment to the International Space Station, the Mobile Base System, which will be installed on the Mobile Transporter to complete the Canadian Mobile Servicing System, or MSS, and a replacement wrist/roll joint for Canadarm 2. The mechanical arm will then have the capability to "inchworm" from the U.S. Lab Destiny to the MSS and travel along the truss to work sites. Launch is scheduled for May 30, 2002

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- The STS-111 and Expedition 5 crews relax at the traditional crew meal before getting ready for launch. Seated left to right are Mission Specialists Franklin Chang-Diaz and Philippe Perrin (CNES), cosmonauts Sergei Treschev (RSA) and Valeri Korzun (RSA) and astronaut Peggy Whitson, the Expedition 5 crew, Pilot Paul Lockhart and Commander Kenneth Cockrell. In front of them is the traditional cake. STS-111 is the second Utilization Flight to the International Space Station, carrying the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module Leonardo, the Mobile Base System (MBS), and a replacement wrist/roll joint for the Canadarm 2. Also onboard Space Shuttle Endeavour is the Expedition 5 crew who will replace Expedition 4 on board the Station. The MBS will be installed on the Mobile Transporter to complete the Canadian Mobile Servicing System, or MSS. The mechanical arm will then have the capability to "inchworm" from the U.S. Lab Destiny to the MSS and travel along the truss to work sites. Expedition 4 crew members will return to Earth with the STS-111 crew on Endeavour. Launch is scheduled at 7:44 p.m. EDT, May 30, 2002
