Among many activities, astronauts aboard the International Space Station have spent their morning configuring the vestibule for the Kibo Japanese logistics module, or JLP, for the module's relocation later today. After the vestibule is depressurized, astronauts will use the space station robotic arm to grapple the JLP. At about 3 p.m., they will unberth the JLP from the top port of the Harmony node and move it 30 feet to its permanent location on top of the Kibo Japanese Pressurized Module, or JPM. The JLP had been delivered to the station during STS-123 in March.
