English: At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, members of the STS-132 crew prepare for the next phase of their training inside an M-113 armored personnel carrier. From left are Mission Specialists Michael Good and Garrett Reisman; Battalion Chief David Seymour, the instructor; Mission Specialist Steve Bowen; Pilot Tony Antonelli; and Commander Ken Ham. An M-113 is kept at the foot of the launch pad in case an emergency egress from the vicinity of the pad is needed. The STS-132 crew is participating in their Terminal Countdown Demonstration Test, or TCDT, a dress rehearsal for launch. TCDT provides each shuttle crew and launch team the opportunity to participate in various simulated countdown activities, including equipment familiarization and emergency training. On the STS-132 mission, the six-member crew will deliver an Integrated Cargo Carrier, or ICC, and the Russian-built Mini-Research Module-1, or MRM-1, to the International Space Station aboard space shuttle Atlantis. The ICC is an unpressurized flat bed pallet and keel yoke assembly used to support the transfer of exterior cargo from the shuttle to the space station. The MRM-1, known as Rassvet, is the second in a series of new pressurized components for Russia and will be permanently attached to the Earth-facing port of the Zarya control module. Rassvet, which translates to "dawn," will be used for cargo storage and will provide an additional docking port to the station. STS-132 is the 34th mission to the station and the 132nd shuttle mission overall.
