Discovery transfers cargo to space station

The astronauts moved a huge cargo container, nicknamed Leonardo, onto the space station by robotic arm. Among the goodies awaiting the space station crew were a new stationary bicycle for exercise, an oxygen generator that will eventually allow the space station to support six inhabitants, a machine that cools the station8217;s cabin air and a lab freezer for scientific samples.

Discovery8217;s six remaining shuttle crew members awoke to a recording of The Beatles8217; Good Day Sunshine. The astronauts have to take close-up pictures of the orbiter8217;s underside and panel using the robotic arm and boom to reassure engineers that there8217;s no damage like the kind that doomed Columbia8217;s flight in 2003.
