    Mission ISS-7A

    Mission Description:

    The primary objective of STS-104 is ISS Assembly Flight 7A. This mission will deliver the Joint Airlock and High Pressure Gas Assembly. The Airlock will provide station-based Extravehicular Activity (EVA) spacewalking capability for both US and Russian spacesuits. The High pressure gas assembly will support spacewalk operations and augments the Service Module gas resupply system.
