Cast in late afternoon shadows, Space
Shuttle Columbia is revealed as the Rotating Service Structure rolls
back. The Shuttle sits atop the Mobile Launcher Platform. Near the top
is seen the orbiter access arm with the White Room at the end. The
White Room provides entry into the Shuttle for the crew. Above the
orange external tank is the gaseous oxygen vent arm and cap, called
the "beanie cap." Columbia is scheduled for launch Jan. 16 at 10:39
a.m. EST on mission STS-107.
