CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – In the Astrotech payload processing facility at Port Canaveral, Fla., workers dressed in clean room attire, known as bunny suits, prepare to close the hatch of the Russian-built Mini-Research Module-1, or MRM-1, for flight. 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 space shuttle mission. Launch is targeted for May 14.

S132-E-008114 (18 May 2010) --- In the grasp of the Canadarm2, the Russian-built Mini-Research Module 1 (MRM-1) is transferred from space shuttle Atlantis’ payload bay to be permanently attached to the Earth-facing port of the Zarya Functional Cargo Block (FGB) of the International Space Station. Named Rassvet, Russian for "dawn," the module is the second in a series of new pressurized components for Russia. Rassvet will be used for cargo storage and will provide an additional docking port to the station.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – At the Astrotech payload processing facility at Port Canaveral in Florida, STS-132 Mission Specialist Garrett Reisman compares the actual Mini-Research Module to a picture of the module during the crew equipment interface test, or CEIT. CEIT provides the crew with hands-on training and observation of shuttle and flight hardware. The six-member crew of space shuttle Atlantis' STS-132 mission will deliver an Integrated Cargo Carrier and a Russian-built Mini-Research Module to the International Space Station. The second in a series of new pressurized components for Russia, the module will be permanently attached to the bottom port of the Zarya module and also will carry U.S. pressurized cargo. STS-132 is the 34th mission to the station and the 132nd space shuttle mission in the program. Launch is targeted for May 14.
