Description Lights on Launch Pad 39B put Space Shuttle Discovery in the spotlight after the rollback of the Rotating Service Structure. The Space Shuttle sits on the Mobile Launcher Platform (MLP), which is 25 ft. high, 160 ft. long and 135 ft. wide. An MLP weighs 8,230,000 pounds. At the launch pad, with a fueled Shuttle on the 6-inch-thick decks, it weighs approximately12,700,000 pounds. There are three exhaust openings in the main deck of an MLP. Two are for the exhaust of the SRBs at launch and the third, a center opening, is for the exhaust from the main engines.
