CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – In Orbiter Processing Facility-1 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, members of space shuttle Atlantis' STS-132 crew participate in training activities during the Crew Equipment Interface Test, or CEIT, for their mission. Here, Mission Specialist Steve Bowen points out to his instructors some hardware mounted on the side of Atlantis' payload bay. CEIT provides the crew with hands-on training and observation of shuttle and flight hardware. The six-member crew of Atlantis' STS-132 mission will deliver an Integrated Cargo Carrier and a Russian-built Mini-Research Module to the International Space Station. STS-132 is the 34th mission to the station and the 132nd space shuttle mission. Launch is targeted for May 14.
