STS-99 Payload Door Closure in Orbiter Processing Facility # 2, Endeavour, (SRTM)

The primary objective of the STS-99 mission was to complete high resolution mapping of large sections of the Earth's surface using the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM), a specially modified radar system. This videotape shows the SRTM in Endeavour's payload bay, while the payload bay doors are being closed. There are some views of the Orbiter Processing Facility and technicians in the clean room environment.
