The STS-132 mission was the 32nd flight of the space shuttle Atlantis. The primary STS-132 mission objective was to deliver the Russian-made MRM-1 (Mini Research Module) to the International Space Station (ISS). Atlantis will also delivered a new communications antenna and a new set of batteries for one of the ISS solar arrays. The STS-132 mission patch features Atlantis flying off into the sunset as the end of the Space Shuttle Program approaches. However the sun is also heralding the promise of a new day as it rises for the first time on a new ISS module, the MRM-1, which is also named “Rassvet,” the Russian word for dawn.
