Crawler parking
The shot CNN just showed of the astro van traveling down the
crawlerway showed one of the crawlers parked at the old LUT parking pad. Is this a normal position when a Shuttle is on the pad? Special for -114? Pre-positioning for a possible hurricane rollback?

Yesit's normal - it's been at the perimeter gate until very recently, then pulled back to the midfield parksite. |
