CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- Attired in clean-room gear, known as 'bunny suits,' STS-133 Pilot Eric Boe and Mission Specialist Nicole Stott peer into the shuttle's payload bay under the watchful eye of a technician in Orbiter Processing Facility-3 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The astronauts are at Kennedy for the Crew Equipment Interface Test, or CEIT, which provides the crew with hands-on training and observation of shuttle and flight hardware for their mission to the International Space Station. Launch of the STS-133 mission on space shuttle Discovery is targeted for Nov. 1 at 4:33 p.m. EDT. Photo credit: NASA_Kim Shiflett
