[b]STS-134 crew arrives for practice launch countdown[/b] Endeavour's six astronauts arrived at NASA Kennedy Space Center's Shuttle Landing Facility in four T-38 jets between 5:07 p.m. and 5:24 p.m. EDT March 29. The crew is in Florida for their week-long launch dress rehearsal, called the Terminal Countdown Demonstration Test, or TCDT. The mock-countdown will offer the astronauts and ground crews an opportunity to participate in various simulated countdown activities, including equipment familiarization and emergency training. Later on Tuesday, STS-134 commander Mark Kelly and pilot Greg H. Johnson will practice shuttle landings in shuttle training aircraft.
