As part of the final STS-82 prelaunch activities, the seven crew members gather for lunch and a photo opportunity in the Operations and Checkout Building. From left, are Payload Commander Mark C. Lee, Mission Specialist Steven A. Hawley, Pilot Scott J. "Doc" Horowitz, Mission Commander Kenneth D. Bowersox, and Mission Specialists Joseph R. "Joe" Tanner, Steven L. Smith and Gregory J. Harbaugh. After a weather briefing, the astronauts will don their launch and entry suits and depart for Launch Pad 39A, where the Space Shuttle Discovery awaits liftoff during a 65-minute launch window which opens at about 3:55 a.m. EST, Feb. 11. The exact opening of the launch window will be announced a few hours before launch based on the final computation of the location of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). STS-82 will be the second mission to service the HST which was deployed in 1990
