STS-134: Shuttle Technicians Enter Endeavour's Aft

Technicians and engineers at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida have identified the likely source of what caused heaters on a fuel line for space shuttle Endeavour's auxiliary power unit-1 (APU-1) to fail on Friday, scrubbing the first launch attempt for the STS-134 mission. The failure appears to be a power problem within the aft load control assembly-2 (ALCA-2), a box of switches controlling power feeds.

Thanks for this! Please keep uploading these sort of videos. It really helps demonstrate how insane the repair work is for those of us with limited knowledge of the orbiter!
