Astronaut Mike Massimino takes us inside the garage of href="http://www.universetoday.com/guide-to-space/space/" class="alinks_links" title="" rel="external">space shuttle Discovery — also known as the Orbiter Processing Facility (OPF)– for a behind the scenes look at the work that is done on the orbiters, as well as seeing some of the training for the href="http://www.universetoday.com/guide-to-space/spaceflight/astronauts/" class="alinks_links" title="" rel="external">astronauts on the upcoming STS-131 mission. This is part of a series of "behind the scenes for STS-131" videos that Massimino hosts, which you can find on the href="http://www.youtube.com/user/NASAtelevision">NASA TV You Tube channel. Mass brings humor and sense of wonder to these videos, and is great at doing public outreach for NASA.
