In the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, technicians install insulating blankets to the hatch of the Permanent Multipurpose Module, or PMM, to protect it and its contents from the harsh environment and temperatures of space.

Space shuttle Discovery and its STS-133 crew are targeted to launch Nov. 1 and will deliver the PMM, packed with supplies and critical spare parts, as well as Robonaut 2, the dexterous humanoid astronaut helper, to the International Space Station.
