STS-1: mating Columbia with the External Tank (ET) and Solid Rocket Boosters (SRB)

"Workers grappled Columbia with a crane and lifted it from the transfer aisle, hoisting it more than 190 feet in the air to transfer it to High Bay 3 before lowering again to join it to the already assembled ET and SRBs.

By early Nov. 26, workers completed all the connections to Columbia as engineers activated the orbiter to prepare the assembled vehicle for a series of tests. As part of the two-week shuttle interface test, on Dec. 4, engineers powered up the entire stack for the first time. Additional tests ensured that all systems operated as expected in the overall vehicle and ground systems."

Ginger Cakes

Source: The New James Beard 1989

The smooth texture of these cookies with a hot overtone of ginger is rather like a ginger shortbread. Use the shortbread technique of pressing the mixture into the pan with your fingers.

Makes about 50 cookies

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed

1 tablespoon ground ginger

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 pound (1 cup) unsalted butter

Mix the flour, sugar, ginger, and baking soda thoroughly, then combine with the butter, cut into small pieces, until the mixture is well blended and crumbly. Place a 1/2-inch thickness of the mixture in square 8-inch layer- cake pans, pressing it down in the pan with your fingers. Bake in a 325° oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until lightly browned. While the cake is still warm, cut it into finger-shaped pieces about 1 inch wide. Remove the pieces with a spatula and, when cool, store in covered tins.
