JSC2001-02162 (10 August 2001) --- Astronaut Michael J. Bloomfield, STS-110 mission commander, uses a device called a Sky genie to simulate rappelling from a troubled shuttle in a training session in the Space Vehicle Mockup Facility at the Johnson Space Center (JSC). The mockup is called the Full Fuselage Trainer (FFT). This exercise trains the crewmembers for procedures to follow in egressing a troubled shuttle on the ground. STS-110 will be the 13th shuttle mission to visit the International Space Station (ISS).
