National Aeronautics and Space Administration Functional Cargo Block (FGB) Zarya (Sunrise) and Russian Research Modules NASA/Khrunichev Production Center ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The FGB was the first element of the International Space Station, built in Russia under Service a U.S. contract. During the early stages of ISS assembly, the FGB was self-contained, Progress Module FGB To U.S. and providing power, communications, and attitude control functions. The FGB module International Modules is now used primarily for storage and propulsion. The FGB was based on the modules of Mir. The Russian Multipurpose Modules planned for the ISS will be based on the Multi-Purpose FGB-2, a spare developed as a backup to the FGB. The Russian Research Module may Research Laboratory be based on the FGB design.
