The Columbus external facilities, Solar and EuTEF, are prepared for the Shuttle payload canister at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, Florida. Solar and EuTEF are attached to an ICC-lite. This structure has since been placed inside Space Shuttle Atlantis' cargo bay together with the European Columbus laboratory. Atlantis is targeted for launch to the International Space Station on 6 December 2007. In orbit, once Columbus has been attached to the Station's Harmony module, Solar and EuTEF will be attached to the exterior of Columbus.
