Default Update from the SSPF

Did the behind he scenes tour on Monday at KSC. Saw the SSPF from the
gallery. All three MPLM's are there along with a three other station
pieces. The guide couldn't confirm on, that being what looked like a truss
segement. The other two were the CMG's. I knew one was toast and a second
had a "hiccup" awhile back. Are they replacing two on one flight? Is that
114 or the one after?

Thanks

Jim

They are replacing only the #1 CMG on STS-114. CMG #2 did not have a
problem per se, it's circuit breaker only needed to be replaced to
restore power to it, and get it back up and running.

That's what I thought. So that begs the question why are there 2 CMG's in
the SSPF? Or is one the CMG and the other something that looks suspiciously
like a CMG... grin
