English: KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- Rodney Wilson, with United Space Alliance, inspects the range safety cable between the external tank and solid rocket boosters (SRB) on Space Shuttle Discovery. The cable, which relays a redundant emergency destruction signal between the SRBs in the unlikely event of a contingency, was damaged during close-out operations and is being replaced. Discovery's processing schedule leads to a target launch date of Dec. 6
