STS-120 Commander Pamela Melroy completes suiting up to take part in a simulated launch countdown, part of the prelaunch terminal countdown demonstration test, or TCDT. Her name patch reflects the nicknames the crew gave each other for the event. The TCDT provides astronauts and ground crews an opportunity to participate in various launch preparation activities, including equipment familiarization, emergency training and the simulated countdown. The STS-120 mission will deliver the U.S. Node 2 module, named Harmony, aboard space shuttle Discovery to the International Space Station. Launch of Discovery on mission STS-120 is targeted for Oct. 23, 2007 at 11:38 a.m. EDT on a 14-day mission. This marks the first time an ISS expedition will be commanded by a woman. This also marks the first time the both commanders of the joint mission between ISS Expediton 16 and STS-120 will be women (Peggy Whitson, and Melroy, respectively).
