US-SPACE-SHUTTLE-ATLANTIS
In Firing Room 4 of the Launch Control Center, (L-R) NASA Administrator Michael Griffin, NASA Associate Administrator for Space Operations William Gerstenmaier and NASA manager of the Space Shuttle Program Wayne Hale go through checks leading up to the launch scrub of STS-115, 08 September 2006. The launch of Space Shuttle Atlantis was scrubbed until 09 September, due to a problem with one of the vehicle's external tank ECO sensor system. The STS-115 crew members of Atlantis will install the P3/P4 integrated truss and a second set of solar arrays on the International Space Station, doubling the station's current ability to generate power from sunlight and adding 17.5 tons to its mass.
