Glenn Jr. (left), payload specialist, and other STS-95 crew members (out of frame) are briefed by principle investigator Ray Cronise (right) on an aerogel experiment to be carried aboard the space shuttle Discovery for the STS-95 mission.

This training took place in the flight operations facility at the Johnson Space Center (JSC). The photo was taken by Joe McNally, National Geographic, for NASA.
