Technicians Latch Hatch
The closeout crew has locked Discovery's hatch and is getting ready to leave Launch Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The astronauts inside Discovery can open the hatch quickly in an emergency, but the countdown is moving along with no technical concerns.

Commander Lee Archambault will lead Discovery's crew of seven, along with Pilot Tony Antonelli, and Mission Specialists Joseph Acaba, John Phillips, Steve Swanson, Richard Arnold and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency astronaut Koichi Wakata on mission STS-119 to the International Space Station.
The Discovery crew members are set to fly the S6 truss segment and install the final set of power-generating solar arrays to the International Space Station. The S6 truss will complete the backbone of the station and provide one-fourth of the total power needed to support a crew of six.
The whole event was covered by NASA TV. They give good insight in the whole mission as well as stunning pictures. Check it out next time, if you missed it.
