LAUNCH PAD 39B TRANSFORMS FOR FUTURE LAUNCHES - JSC
At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the fixed service structure (FSS)
and rotating service structure (RSS) from Launch Pad 39B have been removed.
The FSS and RSS were designed to support the unique needs of the Space Shuttle Program. In 2009, the pad was no longer needed for the shuttle program, so it is being restructured for future use.
Its new design will feature a "clean pad" for rockets to come with their own launcher, making it more versatile for a number of vehicles.
The transformation also includes the refurbishment of the liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen tanks and the upgrade of about 1.3 million feet of cable.
The new lightning protection system, which was in place for the October 2009
launch of Ares I-X, will remain.
