The Payload Carriers Team is responsible for MSFC's [Marshall Space Flight Center] Payload Carriers which is made up of two type of carriers: the Spacelab Logistics Pallet (SLP) and the Multi-Purpose Equipment Support Structure (MPESS). The Payload Carriers "bridge the gap" in payload accommodations available in the Space Shuttle's Payload Bay by providing unique structural, power, data and thermal resources to a variety of payloads. These carriers are designed to transport items safely through the rigors of high acceleration Shuttle launch and the vacuum of space while providing the flexibility to allow the Shuttle to minimize the mass transported to earth orbit.
