Orbiter: Atlantis
Shuttle Mission: STS-110
Date: April 8

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -– After arriving at Kennedy Space Center's Shuttle Landing Facility (SLF), the crew of STS-110 take a few moments to thank those who prepared them for this mission and to comment on the exciting days ahead. Mission STS-110 is the 13th assembly flight to the International Space Station. During four planned spacewalks, crew members will install the S0 Integrated Truss Structure (ITS), centerpiece of the orbiting International Space Station (ISS), at the center of the 10-truss, girderlike structure that will ultimately extend the length of a football field on the ISS. The S0 truss will be attached to the U.S. Lab, "Destiny," on the 11-day mission.
