A Last Landing for Space Shuttle Endeavour
Explanation: Space shuttle Endeavour is home to stay. In a rare night
landing
last week,
Endeavour glided
onto a runway in
Cape Canaveral
,
Florida
,
USA
completing a
16-day mission
that included a visit to the
International Space Station
(ISS). All told, space shuttle
Endeavour
flew 25 flights since being deployed by NASA in 1992, spending a total of 299 days in space. Endeavour's next mission will be a stationary one in the
California Science Center
. Even as
Endeavour
was landing, the space shuttle Atlantis was being
rolled out
in
preparation
for the last mission of any Space Shuttle, a
mission currently scheduled
to begin on July 8. Poll:
Which of last week's APODs should be the APOW?
