CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – At NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the sun shines brightly over the Vehicle Assembly Building as a large crane lowers the tenth and final segment of a new mobile launcher, or ML, being constructed to support the Constellation Program, onto the top of the tower. When completed, the tower will be approximately 345 feet tall and have multiple platforms for personnel access. Its base is being made lighter than space shuttle mobile launcher platforms so the crawler-transporter can pick up the heavier load of the tower and a taller rocket.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – A group of nine Florida Institute of Technology aspiring journalists observe the interior of the mobile launcher inside the Vehicle Assembly Building, or VAB, at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida on May 22. The group of students, in collaboration with Florida Today, is working on a multimedia project that examines health in zero gravity and how life in space can help people live better on Earth. These multimedia stories will be published for the print and online versions of Florida Today. During their visit, the students interviewed astronaut and Expedition 35 flight engineer Chris Cassidy during an International Space Station downlink in the Press Site auditorium. The journalists also met with Kennedy Director Bob Cabana who talked about NASA's goals for the future and his own experience in space, answering questions about health effects of spaceflight. The journalists also toured the Apollo Saturn V Center.
