Cupola, a dome of windows for ISS that should head up with STS-130.
The seven windows are under controlled covers to protect against
collisions with small space debris.
Originally Cupola was to go up via multiple flights, but the shortened
Shuttle schedule didn't permit this, and a method to put the module
up in one launch was worked out.
It was very cool to get to stand immediately next to an ISS extension.
