A cold snap in Florida can't cool the enthusiasm of the STS-72 astronauts regarding their upcoming spaceflight. The six-member crew arrived at KSC's Shuttle Landing Facility the same day the countdown clock began ticking toward a January 11 liftoff at approximately 4:18 am EST, warmer weather is forecast with generally favorable conditions expected around the time of launch. Addressing news media gathered for their arrival is Mission Commander Brian Duffy, behind him are, from left, Mission Specialists Winston E. Scott, Leroy Chiao, Dr. Daniel T. Barry, and Kiochi Wakata (who represents the National Space Agency of Japan) and Pilot Brent W. Jett Jr. The flight of the Space Shuttle Endeavour on STS-72 will mark the beginning of this year's Shuttle launch schedule. |

STS-92 - Discovery Fly-away - return to Florida |
| Description |
Carrying the Space Shuttle Discovery piggyback, one of NASA's modified Boeing 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft lifts off the runway at Edwards Air Force Base, California. The Discovery was ferried from NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center at Edwards to NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida on November 2, 2000, after extensive post-landing servicing and ferry flight preparations. STS-92 was the 100th mission since the fleet of four Space Shuttles began flying in 1981. (Due to schedule changes, missions are not always launched in the order that was originally planned.) The almost 13-day mission, the 46th Shuttle mission to land at Edwards, was the last construction mission for the International Space Station prior to the first scientists taking up residency in the orbiting space laboratory the following month. The seven-member crew on STS-92 included mission specialists Koichi Wakata, Michael Lopez-Alegria, Jeff Wisoff, Bill McArthur and Leroy Chiao, pilot Pam Melroy and mission commander Brian Duffy. |

One of NASA's two modified Boeing 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft is bathed in the morning Sun at NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center at Edwards, California. The modified jumbo jetliners are used to ferry the Space Shuttle orbiters between Dryden and the Kennedy Space Center in Florida and Boeing's Reusable Space Systems modification facility at Palmdale, California. Features which distinguish the two SCAs from standard 747 jetliners are three struts, with associated interior structural strengthening, which protrude from the top of the fuselage (two aft, one forward) on which the orbiter is attached, and two additional vertical stabilizers, one on each end of the standard horizontal stabilizer, to enhance directional stability. All interior furnishings and equipment aft of the forward No. 1 doors have also been removed to reduce weight. The two SCAs are under the operational control of NASA's Johnson Space Center, Houston, Texas. STS-92 was the 100th mission since the fleet of four Space Shuttles began flying in 1981. (Due to schedule changes, missions are not always launched in the order that was originally planned.)

Discovery?s launch pad, 39-B, is on the left. Chiao used the same lens arrangement for the photograph that will be used by the next Station crew to photograph Discovery's heat shield as it approaches the Station on its Return to Flight. The imagery the Station crew will take of Discovery as it approaches is one of several new things that will be done to provide imagery to be used in assessing the health of the Shuttle. |
