Re: Columbus European Laboratory Module

The 13 day mission, set to launch on Discovery's next flight, ESA/Columbus ready for STS-122

Columbus - which was built by EADS Space Transportations - has a 10 year lifespan, and is equipped with flexible research facilities that offer extensive science capabilities, including thousands of experiments in life sciences, materials science, fluid physics and a whole host of other disciplines, all in the weightlessness of orbit.
