In the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, the integrated cargo carrier-lite, or ICC-L, is ready to be lifted and placed in the payload canister for mission STS-122. Seen here are two of the elements mounted on top: on the left, the European technology Exposure Facility composed of nine science instruments and an autonomous temperature measurement unit, and on the right, the SOLAR payload designed for sun observation. The SOLAR will be transferred and stowed on the Columbus module during the third spacewalk of the mission. STS-122 is targeted for launch on Dec. 6 on space shuttle Atlantis.
