Space Shuttle OAA
Shane112358 posted this to the PreCentral forums.He says “the OAA is basically the catwalk from the shuttle service structure to the vehicle itself. The door in the picture is the door to the white room, which is at the end of the OAA and serves as a staging area for personnel (called the closeout crew) to help the astronauts into the vehicle, final pre-launch preparations, and also extract them if there was ever to be an emergency that required they leave the vehicle ASAP. The OAA and white room are about 150 feet above the launch pad.”
