CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, External Tank-138 has been lifted into the upper levels of a high bay in the Vehicle Assembly Building. It will then be lowered onto a test stand and checked before launch. ET-138, the last newly manufactured tank, was originally designated to fly on Endeavour's STS-134 mission to the International Space Station, but later reassigned to fly on space shuttle Atlantis' final mission, STS-135.
