KSC Director Roy Bridges (center) and guests view the new Checkout and Launch Control System (CLCS) at the Hypergolic Maintenance Facility (HMF). Looking on next to him (left) is NASA Associate Administrator for Space Flight Joseph Rothenberg and Pam Gillespie (far right), from Rep. Dave Weldon’s office. The CLCS was declared operational in a ribbon cutting ceremony earlier. The new control room will be used to process the Orbital Maneuvering System pods and Forward Reaction Control System modules at the HMF. This hardware is removed from Space Shuttle orbiters and routinely taken to the HMF for checkout and servicing
