STS-86 Mission Specialist Scott E. Parazynski gets assistance from a suit technician in making adjustments to his launch and entry suit in the Operations and Checkout Building. This will be Parazynskis second flight. He and the six other crew members will depart shortly for Launch Pad 39A, where the Space Shuttle Atlantis awaits liftoff on a 10-day mission slated to be the seventh docking of the Space Shuttle with the Russian Space Station Mir. Parazynski is scheduled to perform a spacewalk during the docking.
