Summary

Backdropped by the blackness of space and Earth’s horizon, the Mobile Remote Servicer Base System (MBS) is moved by the Canadarm2 for installation on the International Space Station (ISS). Astronauts Peggy A. Whitson, Expedition Five flight engineer, and Carl E. Walz, Expedition Four flight engineer, attached the MBS to the Mobile Transporter on the S0 (S-zero) Truss at 8:03 a.m. (CDT) on June 10, 2002. The MBS is an important part of the station’s Mobile Servicing System, which will allow the station’s robotic arm to travel the length of the station to perform construction tasks.
