KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -A newly redesigned External Tank (ET-119) rolls into the transfer aisle of the Vehicle Assembly Building. The tank, which will be used on a future Space Shuttle launch, arrived aboard a barge at the Turn Basin in Launch Complex 39 Area at Kennedy Space Center, Florida. The barge was towed on a 900-mile journey at sea from the Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans by one of NASA’s Solid Rocket Booster Retrieval Ships.
