  • Description: Members of the STS-101 crew take part in Crew Equipment Interface Test (CEIT) activities at SPACEHAB, in Cape Canaveral, Fla., where they are learning about some of the equipment they will be working with on their mission to the International Space Station. Mission Specialist Susan Helms holds one component while Commander James Halsell and Mission Specialist Yuri Usachev look on, and Mission Specialists Mary Ellen Weber and Jeffrey Williams discuss another. Also taking part in the CEIT are Pilot Scott Horowitz and Mission Specialist James Voss. The green component on the table is an air duct to be installed in the Russian module Zarya to improve ventilation. The STS-101 crew will be responsible for preparing the Space Station for the arrival of the Zvezda Service Module, expected to be launched by Russia in July 2000. Also, the crew will conduct one space walk to perform maintenance on the Space Station and deliver logistics and supplies. This will be the third assembly flight for the Space Station. STS-101 is scheduled to launch no earlier than April 13 from Launch Pad 39A.
