S98-09844 (6-29-98) --- Working near the full fuselage trainer, astronaut Catherine G. Coleman simulates an emergency egress from the shuttle during a training exercise in the Johnson Space Center's Systems Integration Facility. She is assisted here by technician Rick Ortega of Johnson Engineering. The full fuselage trainer is a full-scale shuttle mockup used by crew members to prepare for their assigned missions in space. Coleman was joined by her four STS-93 crewmembers for the training session. The five are scheduled for launch aboard the Space Shuttle Columbia in the spring of 1999. |
