Work begins on the Odyssey Launch Platform. Before repairs can be performed, the team assesses operations and functioning of the vessel, its support equipment and the launch support equipment. Here, members of the marine crew examine the roof of the hangar, which is designed to retract to accommodate the movement of the rocket as it is erected on the launch pad.

The transporter-erector is housed inside the hangar during launch operations. Following a full evaluation inspectors found no damage.
