KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -  During suit check, STS-115 Mission Specialist Steven MacLean signals confidence about the launch on Space Shuttle Atlantis on Aug. 27.  MacLean, who represents the Canadian Space Agency, will be making his second flight on a shuttle.   Mission STS-115 is scheduled to lift off about 4:30 p.m. Aug. 27.  The crew will deliver and install the P3/P4 segment to the port side of the integrated truss system on the International Space Station.  The truss includes a new set of photovoltaic solar arrays.  When unfurled to their full length of 240 feet, the arrays will provide additional power for the station in preparation for the delivery of international science modules over the next two years.  The mission is expected to last 11 days and includes three scheduled spacewalks.   Photo credit: NASA/Kim Shiflett KSC-06pd1924

Seated in the right seat of the descent module of the Soyuz TMA-21 spacecraft, Expedition 27 Flight Engineer Ron Garan of NASA runs through a checklist of procedures during a dress rehearsal of launch activities at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan March 22, 2011. Garan, Soyuz Commander Alexander Samokutyaev (center) and Flight Engineer Andrey Borisenko are scheduled to launch April 5 (April 4, U.S. time) in the Soyuz, which has been dubbed “Gagarin” and which bears the likeness of cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, the first human in space. The launch will occur just one week shy of the 50th anniversary of Gagarin’s historic journey into space from the same launch pad that the Expedition 27 crew will begin their mission from.
