Canadarm2 – Images of a 10-Year History

2009-09-07 - STS-128 was primarily a mission of outfitting and updating the Station with new equipment and supplies. To accomplish this, Shuttle Discovery brought with it the Leonardo cargo module. Canadarm2 dutifully unloaded it from the Shuttle’s payload bay, installed it on the Station, and returned it to Discovery after mission operations were concluded. In this image, Canadarm2 is in the midst of returning the Leonardo module to the cargo bay. (Credit: NASA)
