KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - The U.S. Node 2 is undergoing a Multi-Element Integrated Test (MEIT) in the Space Station Processing Facility. Node 2 attaches to the end of the U.S. Lab on the ISS and provides attach locations for the Japanese laboratory, European laboratory, the Centrifuge Accommodation Module and, eventually, Multipurpose Logistics Modules. It will provide the primary docking location for the Shuttle when a pressurized mating adapter is attached to Node 2. Installation of the module will complete the U.S. Core of the ISS.
