Shuttle managers have baselined STS-133 – by way of the Flight Definition Requirements Document (FDRD) mission update – into a 10+1+2 day mission, involving a crew of just five, a Flight Day 4 docking and just one EVA. The move was made to allow for additional mass to be carried by the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module (MPLM) – which will remain as a new addition on the International Space Station (ISS).
