NASA STS-134 Status: Astronauts Suiting Up for Launch

The six STS-134 crew members are suiting up for launch in their crew quarters at Kennedy’s Operations and Checkout Building.

Commanded by Mark Kelly, the crew will head out to Launch Pad 39A after they don their familiar orange-colored flight suits and climb into NASA’s waiting silver Astrovan.

The countdown is continuing to go smoothly for the STS-134 mission and final flight of Endeavour. Liftoff remains on target for 8:56 a.m. EDT.

Weather remains favorable, with a 70 percent chance of good conditions at launch time and no technical issues are being worked.
