Installation
The Cupola was launched aboard the Space Shuttle on mission STS-130, on February 8, 2010. It was berthed to the forward port of the Tranquility module for launch, and was later transferred to the nadir-facing port of Tranquility by the Canadarm2, once Tranquility had been berthed to the Unity Module of the ISS. The installation of the Cupola, along with Tranquility, marks one of the last main components to be added to the International Space Station.
