In the Space Station Processing Facility, an overhead crane lifts the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module Leonardo from a workstand to move it to the payload canister. The MPLM is the primary payload on mission STS-105, the 11th assembly flight to the International Space Station. Leonardo, fitted with supplies and equipment for the crew and the Station, will be transported to Launch Pad 39A and installed into Discoverys payload bay. Launch is scheduled no earlier than Aug. 9.
