The Functional Cargo Block (FGB) mockup. My favorite story about this place is that many of the windows in the background here were broken and it was a very cold day. The Russian folks decided to plug in a portable space heater for the sake of the "Americans" so we didn't freeze to death while doing our tests. When they plugged the heater in, sparks flew everywhere and blew a fuse so that all the lights and computer equipment went dead for several hours. The Russian space facility sure was a different environment than what we have in the states due to the poor economy at the time of our visit.
