In bay 2 of the Orbiter Processing Facility, workers are installing the Multifunction Electronic Display Subsystem - a state-of-the-art “glass cockpit” - on the orbiter Endeavour. The “bunny suits” they are wearing are clean room attire required for anyone coming in close proximity to the orbiter. The full-color, flat-panel MEDS upgrade improves crew/orbiter interaction with easy-to-read, graphic portrayals of key flight indicators like attitude display and mach speed. Endeavour is undergoing major modifications, which include inspecting more than 150 miles of wiring and bonding 1,000 thermal tiles, along with installing the display system.
