Cupola är en observatoriemodul på internationella rymdstationen, ISS. Cupola är byggd av ESA.
Cupola har 7 fönster, det största har en diameter på 80 cm och är det största fönster människan placerat i rymden.
Dimensioner och vikt
- Höjd: 1,5 m
- Diameter: 2,95 m
- Vikt vid uppskjutning: 1 805 kg
- Vikt efter dockning: 1 880 kg
Uppskjutning
Cupola sköts upp med rymdfärjan Endeavour under flygningen STS-130, den 8 februari 2010. Under uppskjutningen var modulen dockad till den främre dockningsporten på modulen Tranquility, som också sköts upp med STS-130.
Dockning
Efter att Tranquility modulen dockats med modulen Unity, så flyttades Cupola till nadir porten på Tranquility.

- The Cupola (named after the raised observation deck on a railroad caboose) is a small module designed for the observation of operations outside the ISS such as robotic activities, the approach of vehicles, and extravehicular activity (EVA). It was built in Europe by Thales Alenia Space Italy (TAS-I) under contract of the European Space Agency. It provides spectacular views of Earth and celestial objects. The Cupola has six side windows and a direct nadir viewing window, all of which are equipped with shutters to protect them from contamination and collisions with orbital debris or micrometeorites. The Cupola is designed to house the robotic workstation that controls the ISS’s remote manipulator arm. It can accommodate two crewmembers simultaneously and is berthed to the Earth facing side of Node-3 using a Common Berthing Mechanism (CBM).

This high- angle 800mm image of the Tranquility node in space shuttle Endeavour's cargo bay was photographed by an Expedition 22 crew member aboard the International Space Station. The two spacecraft were in the process of their rendezvous activities which included a back-flip by Endeavour. Tranquility will be installed as the third node for the orbital outpost.
