STS-126 Payload / ULF-2
Space Shuttle Endeavour STS-126 was launched on Nov 14th, 2008 to the International Space Station carrying for the fifth time the Multipurpose Logistic Module "Leonardo" and a spare hardware for the station, the FHRC. The main objective was to provide additional capability to house astronauts and to increase the station crew size from three to six crew members by spring 2009.
During an EVA, the FHRC was moved to the ESP-3 replacing the empty NTA, which was moved to the payload bay for return to Earth.
For this model, the payload detail was made possible thanks to NASA's photo Gallery. It is a FREE model because all the elements have been released separately from other missions.
UPDATE!
This file has been revised with the addition of the FHRC payload to be placed on the ESP-3.
Enjoy this model!
