CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – A Beluga Airbus taxis near the mate/demate device at NASA Kennedy Space Center's Shuttle Landing Facility. The aircraft carries the newest module for the International Space Station, the Tranquility Node 3. Tranquility will eventually house the life support equipment necessary for the International Space Station's permanent crew of six. It will also accommodate the European Space Agency's Cupola observation module, a seven window dome-shaped structure. Tranquility is the payload on the STS-130 mission, targeted for launch in February 2010. Photo credit: NASA/Kim Shiflett
