European Drawer Rack (EDR)

Multi-discipline flexible experiment carrier in Columbus

The European Drawer Rack provides a flexible experiment carrier for a large variety of scientific disciplines, and provides the accommodation and resources to experiment modules housed within standardised drawers and lockers called International Subrack Interface Standard (ISIS) drawers and ISS Lockers. This approach allows a quick turn-around capability, and provides increased flight opportunities for the user community wishing to fly payloads that do not require a complete rack. Currently, the European Drawer Rack facility can accommodate up to 3 drawers, and up to 4 lockers. The overall design of the facility is optimised for the parallel accommodation of three to four payloads, i.e. an average payload size of 2drawers/lockers, but both larger and smaller payloads may be accommodated.

The MSL will be installed in the ESA Columbus laboratory

Atelier Guarniero creates high quality space models, many of which are part of the ESA space program and of the International Space Station (ISS). Each scale model is made exactly matching the real spacecraft using information provided by the European space agency. At the moment we are working on a new line of rocket models beginning with the Soyuz launcher. We are planning to create a full line of rockets to complement our collection of satellites. Make sure to check back often to see pictures of every new satellite we produce.
