Description
English: Above Launch Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, space shuttle Discovery emerges from behind a growing cloud of smoke as it races toward space on its STS-124 mission to the International Space Station. Liftoff was on time at 5:02 p.m. EDT on Saturday, May 31, 2008. Discovery is making its 35th flight. The STS-124 mission is the 26th in the assembly of the space station. It is the second of three flights launching components to complete the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's Kibo laboratory.
