The STS-37 crew walk across the orbiter access arm at Launch Pad 39B to the white room, where they will board Atlantis for the Terminal Countdown Demonstration Test on March 20, 1991. |

How many times did they do the TCDT with the RSS over the orbiter? I thought they normally rolled the RSS back for the test. |
