After their arrival at the KSC Shuttle Landing Facility, the STS-106 crew meet the media. Commander Terrence W. Wilcutt, at the microphone, says a few words; the rest of the crew waits behind him. From left, they are Mission Specialists Yuri I. Malenchenko, Daniel C. Burbank, Richard A. Mastracchio, Boris V. Morukov and Edward T. Lu; and Pilot Scott D. Altman. Malenchenko and Morukov are with the Russian Aviation and Space Agency. The crew will be making pre-launch preparations for the fourth flight to the International Space Station. STS-106 is scheduled to launch Sept. 8, 2000, at 8:45 a.m. EDT from Launch Pad 39B. On the 11-day mission, the seven-member crew will perform support tasks on orbit, transfer supplies and prepare the living quarters in the newly arrived Zvezda Service Module. The first long-duration crew, dubbed “Expedition One,” is due to arrive at the Station in late fall. (Photo Release Date: 09/04/2000 )
