Summary[edit]

Description
English: CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the NASA Railroad train carries the last space shuttle solid rocket booster segments from a rail siding in the Launch Complex 39 area to the Rotation, Processing and Surge Facility. The booster segments were manufactured at the ATK solid rocket booster plant in Promontory, Utah, and traveled to Kennedy along the Florida East Coast Railway. Inside the facility, the segments will be processed and integrated before they are moved to the Vehicle Assembly Facility and mated with space shuttle Atlantis and its external fuel tank. The segments will be used for what currently is planned as the "launch on need," or potential rescue mission for the final shuttle flight, Endeavour's STS-134 mission.
