350+' tall "ML" The Mobile Launch Tower
(or moving a behemoth to the beach launch pad)
"Inside the Gate" of the largest space port on the planet
-Years after the Space Shuttle Program was closed, Kennedy Space is getting ever closer to launching their SLS rocket
View of the Mobile Launch Tower from the roof of OSB-1 (operational support building #1)
The 300+' ML Mobile Launch Tower for NASA's new SLS rocket: "picked up" by the crawler & transported from the construction park site to the beach launch pad 39B for a "Test Fit"
The "Crawler" driving under to ML to pick up the behemoth tower.
The two crawlers have been modified to lift and transport 18 million pounds.
The "ML" being carried to the launch pad
And up the slope to the top of the launch pad
The Crawler and tower straddling the flame trench at the top of the pad.
Lining up the Crawler to set the Mobile Launch tower onto the pad support stanchions
Gently & exactly setting the Mobile Launch tower onto the pad support stanchions
Everyone agreed, that the ML Safety observers (seen on the deck) for the two day trip "In late August" had the worst job of the fit test.

FYI, just thought I would share these few photos to demonstrate the building excitement on Kennedy Space Center for the EM1, SLS lift off!

Freedoms Quest (book one)
Struggle for the northern frontier and other lost tales of old Florida.
Available on Amazon
Desperate times call for bold action.
In a desperate move to retain Florida and protect the treasure-laden galleons on their dangerous return journey to Europe, the King of Spain issues a royal decree offering refuge to all English slaves who escape Florida and pick up a musket to defend the coquina walls of Saint Augustine.
In another bold gamble, the King offers refuge to the dissatisfied Indian nations of the southeast who will take up arms against the English.
Clans, traumatized by war and disease, cross the Spanish Frontier to settle the cattle-rich land and burned missions of Florida.
Follow the descendants of the conquistador Louis Castillo in remote Spanish Florida, a wild and swept by diseases, hurricanes, and northern invasions.
Book Two: Available on Amazon!
