NASA states, “The 16-day mission [for STS-127] will feature five spacewalks and complete construction of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's Kibo laboratory. Astronauts will attach a platform to the outside of the Japanese module that will allow experiments to be exposed to space.”
The STS-127 crewmembers are NASA astronauts: commander Mark Polansky, pilot Doug Hurley and mission specialists Dave Wolf, Christopher Cassidy, Tom Marshburn, Tim Kopra: and Canadian Space Agency (CSA) astronaut and mission specialist Julie Payette.
Kopra will join the Expedition 20 International Space Station crew as one of its flight engineers.
He will replace Japanese astronaut Koichi Wakata, who will return to Earth on Endeavour to conclude a three-month stay at the station.
The web site states, "The Mission Objectives of the Lunar Crater Observation
and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS) include confirming the presence or absence of
water ice in a permanently shadowed crater at the Moon’s South Pole. The
identification of water is very important to the future of human activities on
the Moon."
"LCROSS will excavate the permanently dark floor of one of the Moon’s
polar craters with two heavy impactors in 2009 to test the theory that ancient
ice lies buried there. The impact will eject material from the crater’s surface
to create a plume that specialized instruments will be able to analyze for the
presence of water (ice and vapor), hydrocarbons and hydrated materials."
