Summary

[edit]
Description
English: In the Astrotech payload processing facility at Port Canaveral, Fla., the Russian-built Mini-Research Module-1, or MRM-1, is lowered into the transportation container under the supervision of employees in the facility. The module next will be moved to the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center. The six-member crew of space shuttle Atlantis' STS-132 mission will deliver an Integrated Cargo Carrier and the MRM-1, known as Rassvet, to the International Space Station. The second in a series of new pressurized components for Russia, MRM-1 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.
