Description : (La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais)
(08/16/2000) --- Workers in the Space Station Processing Facility help maneuver the Space Station Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS) onto a test stand. A component of the International Space Station provided by the Canadian Space Agency, the SSRMS will be mated to its payload carrier and later installed into the payload bay of Space Shuttle Endeavour for launch to the Station on STS-100 in April 2001. The 56-foot-long arm will be the primary means of transferring payloads between the orbiter payload bay and the Station. Its three segments comprise seven joints for highly flexible land precise movement, making it capable of moving around the Station’s exterior like an inchworm
