STS-120 DIscovery Mission Overview

STS-120 delivered launch package 10A to the International Space Station (ISS).It consisted of the U.S. Harmony module (also known as Node 2), with four DC-to-DC Converter Unit (DDCU) racks and three Zero-g Storage Racks (ZSR) installed; a Power and Data Grapple Fixture (PDGF) for the station's robot arm, and a Shuttle Power Distribution Unit (SPDU). Harmony was built for NASA by Thales Alenia Space in Torino, Italy, as part of an agreement between NASA and the European Space Agency and is the first pressurized habitable module delivered to the station since the Pirs docking compartment was installed in August 2001.
