Summary

[edit]
Description
English: CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Soaring above Launch Pad 39A's towers, space shuttle Discovery heads skyward on its STS-131 mission leaving NASA's Kennedy Space Center behind racing toward the International Space Station. Shuttle Discovery lifted off at 6:21 a.m. EDT on April 5, 2010. The seven-member STS-131 crew will deliver the multi-purpose logistics module Leonardo, filled with supplies, a new crew sleeping quarters and science racks that will be transferred to the International Space Station's laboratories. The crew also will switch out a gyroscope on the station’s truss, install a spare ammonia storage tank and retrieve a Japanese experiment from the station’s exterior. STS-131 is the 33rd shuttle mission to the station and the 131st shuttle mission overall.
