Pre-flight prep of electronics bays
Final assembly nears completion as onlookers gather
Filling out the flight card and RSO approval
The long walk to the pad...
...out to the back row
Mating to the launch rail
Igniter and fill stem installation
The Iwo Jima moment...
...almost there...
Ready to go
Arming the electronics
Final countdown...
Liftoff...but it's a flameout!
No flight... try again next month!
