KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- In the Space Station Processing Facility, future crew members on the International Space Station are looking at hardware to go in the Experiment Logistics Module Pressurized Section (ELM-PS) of the Japanese Experiment Module, or JEM. Seen here are Koichi Wataka (left), who will be an Expedition 18 flight engineer, and Garrett E. Reisman (center), who will be an Expedition 16 flight engineer. The ELM-PS is one of six modules that compose the JEM. The various components of JEM will be assembled in space over the course of three space shuttle missions. STS-123 is the first of those missions and will carry the ELM-PS aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour, targeted for launch in 2008. Reisman will fly to the space station on STS-123.
