S98-06943 (4-28-98) --- U.S. Sen. John H. Glenn Jr. (D.-Ohio) adjusts the communications gear on a training version of the Shuttle launch and entry garment during a training session in the systems integration facility at the Johnson Space Center (JSC). Mrs. Glenn and Carlous Gillis, who assists the STS-95 crew members with their spacesuits, are in the background. The STS-95 crew members were preparing to rehearse launch readiness procedures on the mid deck of a crew trainer at the Johnson Space Center (JSC). When the STS-95 payload specialist lifts off aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery in October of this year and later lands in Florida, he will be seated in a temporary mid-deck chair like the one used in this training exercise. The photo was taken by Joe McNally, National Geographic, for NASA.
