In the Space Shuttle Processing Facility, an overhead crane begins lifting a high-gain antenna to move it to the Integrated Truss Structure (ITS) Z1, to which it will be attached. The Z1, part of the payload on mission STS-92 (flight 3A) to be launched in mid-fall, is an early exterior framework for the International Space Station. It will allow the first U.S. solar arrays, on mission STS-97 (flight 4A), to be temporarily installed on Unity for early power
