From the payload changeout room on Launch Pad 39B, STS-97 Mission Specialists Joseph Tanner and Marc Garneau (pointing) look over the payload in Endeavour’s payload bay. At right center of the photo is the orbiter docking system (ODS). At left and below the ODS is the Canadian robotic arm that will be used during spacewalks on the mission to install solar arrays. Each more than 100 feet long, the arrays will capture energy from the sun and convert it to power for the Station. STS-97 is scheduled to launch Nov. 30 at about 10:06 p.m. EST.
