Mission Overview
New Crew, New Lab Racks to be Launched to ISS
Rotation of the International Space Station crew, the third flight of an Italian-builtMultipurpose Logistics Module delivering additional scientific racks, equipment and suppliesfor the space station, and two spacewalks highlight the STS-105 mission of Discovery,scheduled for launch from Kennedy Space Center in Florida.The crew changeout is the second for the ISS, and the logistical module, named Leonardo,is making its second flight to the space station. An identical module named Raffaello hasflown once.The STS-105 mission will involve three crews. They are the four-member crew ofDiscovery, the three members of the Expedition Three crew to be launched to the spacestation, and the three members of the Expedition Two crew returning to Earth aboard theshuttle.Commanding the Discovery crew will be Scott Horowitz, an Air Force colonel with a Ph.D.in aerospace engineering, making his fourth flight into space. Pilot will be Frederick W."Rick" Sturckow, a Marine major, former test pilot and veteran of a previous flight to thespace station. Patrick G. Forrester, an Army lieutenant colonel and former test pilot, ismaking his first flight to space as mission specialist 1. Daniel T. Barry, who holds adoctorate in electrical engineering/computer science and an M.D. degree, is missionspecialist 2. This is his third mission to space.The Expedition Three crew of the space station launching aboard Discovery is made up ofan astronaut and two cosmonauts. Its commander is Frank Culbertson, 52, a retired Navycaptain and former test pilot making his third flight into space. Cosmonaut VladimirDezhurov, 39, a Russian Air Force lieutenant colonel who served as commander of a 115-day mission aboard Mir in 1995, will be Soyuz pilot. Cosmonaut Mikhail Tyurin, 41, fromRSC Energia and on his first space mission, will serve as a researcher and flight engineer.The Expedition Two crew returning to Earth aboard Discovery is cosmonaut Yury Usachev,its commander, and astronauts Jim Voss and Susan Helms. They were taken to the stationaboard Discovery on a flight that launched March 8. Expedition Two began the majorscientific investigations aboard Destiny that are the purpose of the orbiting laboratory, andpaved the way for more to come.About 46 hours after its launch Discovery is scheduled to dock with the International SpaceStation. The shuttle will spend almost eight days attached to the ISS. Transfer of equipmentfrom the orbiter's middeck begins less than three hours after docking, which occurs duringthe crew's flight day three.
