[Dezarus2100]

isit true theres a leak? how did it happened?

[swmsalem]

At the risk of sounding stupid... does anyone know how exactly they support and hold this heavy giant up with out breaking anything?

[GlitchGuy01]

I was about to ask the same thing.

[liqkhaos]

As you can see starting at about 1:50 the service structure arm is supported at both ends. Beyond that, it's just really strong materials and marvels of modern engineering.

[elminster506]

Yep, same problem again. Next chance is in July.

the speed for NASA is slow and articulates. The crawler-transporter moves at 1 mph. So how fast do you think it would go.
