    The document is an isometric diagram of the external tank (ET) used on the Space Shuttle. It shows the key components of the ET including the liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen tanks, feedlines, attachments to the orbiters, pressurization lines, and interfaces. Labels indicate the locations of fluid interfaces with the orbiters for the transfer of liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen.
