Description:
The P1 and S1 trusses (also called the Port and Starboard Side Thermal
Radiator Trusses) are attached to the S0 truss, and contain carts to
transport the Canadarm2 and
astronauts to worksites along the space station. They each flow 290 kg (637 lb)
of anhydrous ammonia through three heat
rejection radiators. The S1 truss was launched on STS-112 in October 2002.
Detailed design, test and construction of the S1 and P1 structures was conducted
by McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) in Huntington Beach, CA. First parts were cut
for the structure in 1996, and delivery of the first truss occurred in 1999.
