Service Tower that sits over the pad and helps stack the rocket and protect it from weather.
At launch time, it rolls back, leaving the rocket exposed and ready to launch.
The gray Fixed Umbilical tower on the left of the Mobile Service Tower serves as an umbilical support providing the rocket with LOX and LH2 until launch.
The two towers on either side of the Mobile Service Tower are Lighting Arrestor Towers.
The scrubland can be seen at the bottom of the image, as well as the Banana River.
