Discovery will go to the last flight

NASA spacecraft reusable "Discovery" is preparing for his last flight. On Friday, technology, preparing the ship for the start, replaced the bolt on the flange separation, who the day before had fallen out of the nest and fell into the aft compartment of the shuttle. This node connects the vehicle with a detachable fuel tank. Now the "Discovery" is ready to go to his 39th and final flight to the ISS on November 1. This flight will be the penultimate program of shuttle flights. A point in the shuttle program will put the ship "Endeavour", which should start on February 26.
