STS-10W was a Space Shuttle mission to the International Space Station (ISS) that launched on March 15, 2010. The mission, flown by the Space Shuttle Patriot, was the second mission on behalf of the International Space Agency flown to the ISS. The mission's primary payload was the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module Michelangelo, which carried a number of supplies and experiments intended to increase the amount of time allowable between ISS cargo flights due to the retirement of NASA's Space Shuttle fleet.

  • Length: 21 feet (6.4 m)
  • Diameter: 15 feet (4.6 m)
  • Payload Mass (launch): 26,744 pounds (12,131 kg)
  • Payload Mass (return): 16,268 pounds (7,379 kg)
  • Empty Weight: 9,810 pounds (4,450 kg)

Mission timeline

March 15 (Flight Day 1: Launch)

Patriot launched successfully at 06:35:00 UTC-12 (18:35:00 UTC). Once in orbit the crew opened the payload bay doors, activated the radiators and deployed the Ku band antenna. Ixy Comeaux and Yuma Tazuka then proceeded to activate and check out of the Remote Manipulator System (SRMS) and then conducted a survey of the payload bay. The crew was also successful in down-linking imagery and video of the external tank to the ground.

March 16 (Flight Day 2)

Extra-vehicular activity

Wake-up calls

A tradition for NASA human spaceflights since the days of Gemini, mission crews are played a special musical track at the start of each day in space. Each track is specially chosen, often by their families, and usually has a special meaning to an individual member of the crew, or is applicable to their daily activities.
