S134-E-007321 (18 May 2011) --- The handoff between space shuttle Endeavour?s robotic Canadarm and the International Space Station?s Canadarm2 of the Express Logistics Carrier-3 (ELC-3) is featured in this image photographed by an STS-134 crew member on the station. The ELC-3 was later installed on the left side of the station?s truss structure. ELC-3 holds spare hardware for future station use, including an ammonia tank, a high pressure gas tank, a cargo transport container, two S-band antenna assemblies and a spare arm for DEXTRE, the Special Purpose Dexterous Manipulator.
