| CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, workers prepare to transfer the canister containing the payload for space shuttle Atlantis' STS-129 mission to the International Space Station - Express Logistics Carriers 1 and 2 - into the Payload Changeout Room at Launch Pad 39A. Next, the payload will be installed in Atlantis' payload bay.
The STS-129 crew will deliver two spare gyroscopes, two nitrogen tank assemblies, two pump modules, an ammonia tank assembly and a spare latching end effector for the station's robotic arm. Launch is set for Nov. 16. For information on the STS-129 mission objectives and crew, visit http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/shuttle/shuttlemissions/sts129/index.html.
