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.

I’ll take your word for it that there is an orbiter in there somewhere!

Thanks guys. First photo of the week was May 31, 2005: X-15 pilot Joe Walker, sitting behind CapCom Al Shepard in Mercury Control during Gus Grissom's 'Liberty Bell 7' flight.

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.

I think the RSS was always in place for the TCDT.
