Tuesday, April 17, 2012 – Daily News Space shuttle Discovery ready for voyage to museum tle Discovery has one last mission to complete. At daybreak Tuesday, the oldest of NASA's retired shuttle fleet will leave its home at Kennedy Space Center for the final time, riding on top a mod- ified jumbo jet. CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — Space shut- Its destination: the Smithsonian Institution's hangar outside Washington, D.C. The plane and jet will make a farewell flight over Cape Canaveral before heading north. The pair also will swoop over the nation's capital, including the National Mall, before landing in Virginia. Space center workers arrived by the busloads Monday at the old shuttle landing strip, where the jet was parked with Discovery bolted on top. Security officers, firefighters, former shuttle workers and even astronauts all posed for pictures in front of Discov- ery. The six astronauts who flew Discovery's final space trip a year ago were on hand to bid Discovery goodbye. Discovery first launched in 1984 and flew 39 times in space, more than any other shuttle. It is the oldest of NASA's three surviving space shuttles and the first to head to a museum. Discovery's list of achievements include deliver- ing the Hubble Space Telescope to orbit, carrying the first Russian cosmonaut to launch on a U.S. space- ship, performing the first rendezvous with the Russ- ian space station Mir with the first female shuttle pilot in the cockpit, returning Mercury astronaut John Glenn to orbit, and bringing shuttle flights back to life after the Challenger and Columbia accidents. A white tail cone covers the three replica main engines at the back end of Discovery, to keep them safe during the ferry flight and provide for better aerodynamics. (Only the nozzles are there, no mas- sive power assemblies.) The original air lock is on board that spacewalk- ing astronauts used to step out into the vacuum; Dis- covery is the only shuttle keeping one because it's considered the spacecraft of historic record. The robot arm is already in Virginia and will be placed on side-by-side display. NASA spent the past year draining all toxic fuels from Discovery and removing unnecessary plumb- ing. It will go on display at the Smithsonian's hangar at Dulles International Airport in Virginia, replacing Enterprise, the shuttle prototype that never made it to space but was used in landing tests in the late 1970s. Enterprise is bound for New York City's Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum. ''It's good to see her one more time, and it's great that Discovery is going to a good home. Hopefully, millions of people for many, many years to come will go see Discovery,'' said Steven Lindsey, the last astronaut to command Discovery. ''It's also sad ... it's sad to see that the program is over.'' NASA ended the shuttle program last summer after 30 years to focus on destinations beyond low- Earth orbit. Lindsey, no longer with NASA, now works in the commercial space industry, helping to develop a successor for launching American astro- nauts to the International Space Station. Stephanie Stilson, a NASA manager who is heading up the transition and retirement of the three remaining shuttles, said Discovery looked as though it had just arrived from a ferry trip from the backup landing site in California, as it did so many times in years past. ''To see her like this is quite an amazing sight,'' Stilson said. ''We're finally here'' almost an exact year since Discovery launched and landed for good, she noted. CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — A private U.S. company is on track to become the first commercial visitor to the Interna- tional Space Station. NASA said Monday there's a good chance that Space Explo- ration Technologies Corp., or SpaceX, will make its April 30 date to launch a cargo ship to the space station. More software test- ing is needed before a final ''go'' is given. Managers said they will meet again next Monday to review everything. The Dragon spacecraft will be hoisted aboard the company's Falcon rocket from Cape Canaveral. Stilson said she's managed to keep her emotions in check by staying busy. She's one of the luckier ones; thousands of shuttle workers have lost their jobs. pp y y Astronaut Nicole Stott had ''mixed feelings'' as she gazed up at Discovery. ''There's no denying the sadness associated with it,'' said Stott, who was on Discovery's last crew. The newer shuttle Endeavour is promised to the California Science Center in Los Angeles; it ships out in September. Shuttle Atlantis will remain at Kennedy; a huge display area is in works at the vis- itor complex. With the shuttles retired, U.S. astronauts are hitching big-bucks rides on Russian Soyuz rockets to get to the space station. A variety of private Ameri- can companies are vying for astronaut transportation rights. Officials expect it to be another five years or so before the new spacecraft will be ready to carry passengers. Technologies Corp. or SpaceX, is due to launch its Falcon rocket and Dragon capsule from Cape Canaveral on April 30, on an unprecedented trip to the space station. It will be the first time a private company makes such a cargo run. After reviewing the status of the flight, NASA One of the main competitors, Space Exploration officials said Monday there is a good chance that SpaceX can make the April 30 launch date. More software testing is needed, however, over the next two weeks. Private company's 1st space station visit on track officer and chief designer, Paypal co-founder Elon Musk, said the Falcon and Dragon are proven vehicles. What's new is getting the supply ship to the space sta- tion. Musk was hesitant to give out odds for success, stressing that this is a test flight. NASA has paid $381 million to SpaceX to get this far, under its post-shuttle push for commercial- ly provided cargo and, in three or more years, possibly crew. Musk said the company has put about $1 billion of its own money into the venture. The company's chief executive SpaceX is one of several com- panies competing for the right to handle astronaut ferry trips. Until then, American astronauts will have to travel aboard Russian spacecraft to the space station. Musk plans two more Dragon flights to the space station this year, if all goes well on the upcoming mission. NASA loaded the Dragon with non-essential items such as cloth- ing, food, computers and science experiments. The capsule is designed to return to Earth with a full load as well, something none of the other visiting cargo ships — from Russia, Europe and Japan — can do. NASA says by bringing back old equipment, money can be saved by refurbish- ing the pieces and launching them back up, rather than buying new replacements.
