The STS-115 crew practices exiting from the slidewire basket, used during emergency egress from the launch pad. Sitting in the basket are Pilot Chris Ferguson and Mission Specialist Steven MacLean, who is with the Canadian Space Agency. On the left is Mission Specialist Daniel Burbank. The mission crew is at KSC for Terminal Countdown Demonstration Test (TCDT) activities that are preparation for launch on Space Shuttle Atlantis, scheduled to take place in a window that opens Aug. 27. During their 11-day mission to the International Space Station, the STS-115 crew will continue construction of the station and attach the payload elements, the Port 3/4 truss segment with its two large solar arrays.
