Le COF se présente physiquement sous la forme d’un cylindre accusant 9500 kg au lancement, mesurant 6, 7 mètres sur 4, 5 mètres. Raccordé au point de branchement numéro 2(node 2), il en recevra sa puissance électrique sous la forme de courant continu à 120 volts et d’autres ressources. Sa consommation pourra aller jusqu'à 13, 5 kW. Vu de l'extérieur, le COF est une coque pressurisée cylindrique munie de deux cônes d’extrémité, ainsi que de tourillons servant au transport et à la manutention du module. Rigidifiée et recouverte de plusieurs couches d’isolant thermique et d’un blindage de protection contre les météorites ainsi que les débris spatiaux de plus en plus nombreux, elle est en outre équipée d’une structure d’accrochage sur la coque extérieure en vue des opérations de manutention et d’assemblage au moyen du bras télémanipulateur de la Station spatiale(SSRMS) pouvant aussi servir à la transmission de signaux électriques et de données au moyen de relais integrés. 11, record 5, French, - module%20laboratoire%20Columbus
