CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Workers accompany space shuttle Endeavour as it rolls toward the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center.  The shuttle left Orbiter Processing Facility 2 with first motion at 7:01 am. EDT.  In the VAB, Endeavour will be attached to its external fuel tank and twin solid rocket boosters.  After additional preparations are made, the shuttle will be rolled out to Launch Pad 39B. Endeavour is the backup shuttle, if needed for rescue, for space shuttle Atlantis’ STS-125 mission to NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope targeted for October. Photo credit: NASA/Troy Cryder KSC-08pd2600

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. –  In the Orbiter Processing Facility bay 2 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, workers prepare to install a camera pack on the orbiter boom sensor system in space shuttle Endeavour's payload bay. The scheduled launch vehicle for the STS-126 missions, Endeavour will deliver a multi-purpose logistics module to the International Space Station. Launch is targeted for Nov. 10. Endeavour is also the backup shuttle, if needed for rescue, for the STS-125 mission in October that will make repairs on NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. For that purpose, it is designated STS-400.
