As the transit to the launch site gets underway, the team runs through a full launch rehearsal in the Launch Control Center.

During the rehearsal, all focus is on computer screens, where the team studies the data flow and makes decisions. Here, Jim Mills, mission director (center), is supported by Elena Gray, translator (at left), and Sherry Burner, assistant mission director (at right, in foreground).

Dan Dubbs, in his new role as Deputy VP, Launch Operations, observes the rehearsal.
