Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: In the Canister Rotation Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the vertical payload canister containing the primary payloads for the STS-132 mission is secured on its transporter in preparation for its move to Launch Pad 39A. The payloads secured inside the canister include an Integrated Cargo Carrier, or ICC, and the Russian-built Mini-Research Module-1, or MRM-1, which will be delivered to the International Space Station aboard space shuttle Atlantis. The ICC is an unpressurized flat bed pallet and keel yoke assembly used to support the transfer of exterior cargo from the shuttle to the space station. The MRM-1, known as Rassvet, is the second in a series of new pressurized components for Russia and will be permanently attached to the Earth-facing port of the Zarya control module. Rassvet, which translates to "dawn," will be used for cargo storage and will provide an additional docking port to the station. STS-132 is the 34th mission to the station and the 132nd shuttle mission overall. Launch is targeted for May 14. |
