The Raffaello MPLM also known as MPLM-2 was one of three Multi-Purpose Logistics Modules which were operated by NASA to transfer supplies and equipment to and from the International Space Station. Raffaello was used for four of twelve MPLM flights to the space station with Leonardo being used for the remainder. It was first launched on 19 April 2001 aboard the STS-100 mission flown by Space Shuttle Endeavour and made its third flight in July 2005 aboard Discovery on STS-114.
