KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- In its overhead passage down the Space Station Processing Facility, the U.S. Laboratory Destiny travels past the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module Leonardo. Both are elements in the construction of the International Space Station. The lab is being moved to the Launch Package Integration Stand (LPIS) for a weight and center of gravity determination. Destiny is the payload aboard Space Shuttle Atlantis on mission STS-98 to the Space Station. The lab is fitted with five system racks and will already have experiments installed inside for the flight. The launch is scheduled for January 2001
