Description

With the conclusion of the Shuttle program, High Bay 3 became the first portion of the VAB to undergo the evolution to support things to come. In their twilight, the Shuttle teams that witnessed the transformation from the Apollo program lent their expertise and wisdom, gained from their years of service, to guide conceptual development of the form and function of the platforms. NASA Leadership from Charlie Gambaro was key in this process. RS&H was engaged to design what others suggested would be impossible: create a highly versatile, readily adaptable set of platforms, to meet the initial requirements of the SLS rocket –the most powerful rocket in the world –as well as accommodate the vertical integration of various rockets in future spacecraft processing.
