Science Lab Installation in ISS 3
Fervent writes "I think most of us don't totally realize what dangerous and costly things our astronauts have to do. Saturday morning the ISS (International Space Station) will be connected to the bus-sized science lab. The mission is so dangerous, that there is only 2 inches on either side of the shuttle doors to maneuver the lab out. So costly that NASA literally couldn't build a spare, so this is only a one shot deal. They either get it right or they go home hanging their heads. CNN has the article on this particularly tricky maneuver."
