CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - A view from above the flame trench on Launch Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center shows more repair work under way. The mobile launcher platform, with the space shuttle on top, straddles the trench during launch. Damage to the trench occurred during the launch of Discovery on the STS-124 mission. A 75- by 20-foot section of the east wall was destroyed and debris scattered as far as the pad perimeter fence. Repairs are expected to be completed before the targeted Oct. 8 launch of Atlantis on the STS-125 mission.
