ISS assembly sequence

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following is the assembly sequence of the major components of the International Space Station. The components in bold indicate they are already part of the station. The future components of the list are according to NASA's ISS Flight Assignment Working Group (FAWG) Manifest and are current as of April 6, 2008. However, ISS assembly missions after STS-119 are still subject to considerable changes and should be considered an indication only.
