    • Description: KSC Center Director Jay F. Honeycutt, at left, shakes hands with Scott Cilento, the new flow director of the Space Shuttle orbiter Discovery, in the firing room of the Launch Control Center (LCC) during the STS-82 launch of Discovery on the second Hubble Space Telescope servicing mission. This is Cilento's first launch as Discovery's flow director and Honeycutt's last launch as center director. Honeycutt plans to retire and will be succeeded by Roy D. Bridges Jr. on March 2, 1997. Cilento only has half a tie because Honeycutt just cut it, upholding the LCC tradition of cutting the tie of the person performing in a new role for the first time.
