April 24, 2001 --- This is a Space Shuttle STS-100 mission onboard photograph. Astronaut Scott Parazynski totes a Direct Current Switching Unit while anchored on the end of the Canadian-built Remote Manipulator System (RMS) robotic arm. The RMS is in the process of moving Parazynski to the exterior of the Destiny laboratory (right foreground), where he will secure the spare unit, a critical part of the station's electrical system, to the stowage platform in case future crews will need it. Also in the photograph are the Italian-built Raffaello multipurpose Logistics Module (center) and the new Canadarm2 (lower right) or Space Station Remote Manipulator System.
April 1, 2001 --- The main objective of the STS-100 mission, the sixth International Space Station (ISS) assembly flight, was the delivery and installation of the Canadian-built Space Station Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS), or Canadarm2. In this photograph, astronaut Scott E. Parazynski, mission specialist, works with cables associated with the robotic arm during one of two days of extravehicular activity (EVA). Both space walks were shared with Chris A. Hadfield, mission specialist representing the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), who is visible in the helmet visor of Parazynski. STS-100 launched April 19, 2001 aboard the Space Shuttle Orbiter Endeavour for an 11 day mission.
