STS-111 was aspace shuttle mission to theInternational Space Station (ISS) flown bySpace ShuttleEndeavour. STS-111 resupplied the station and replaced theExpedition 4 crew with theExpedition 5 crew. It was launched on 5 June 2002, fromKennedy Space Center, Florida.

STS-111, in addition to providing supplies, rotated the crews aboard theInternational Space Station, exchanging the threeExpedition 4 members (1 Russian, 2 American) for the threeExpedition 5 members (2 Russian, 1 American).
TheMulti-Purpose Logistics Module (MPLM) carried experiment racks and three stowage and resupply racks to the station. The mission also installed a component of theCanadarm2 called the Mobile Base System (MBS) to the Mobile Transporter (MT) (which was installed duringSTS-110); This was the second component of the CanadianMobile Servicing System, or MSS. This gave the mechanical arm the capability to "inchworm" from the U.S. Lab fixture to the MBS and travel along the Truss to work sites.
STS-111 was the last flight of aCNES astronaut, the French agency having disbanded its astronaut group and transferred them to theESA.
