CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - Shuttle Endeavour is set to arrive
at the International Space Station on Wednesday with a new room and
observation deck.
Endeavour lit up the night sky in Florida early today as the
spacecraft and its six astronauts rocketed into orbit.
It's likely to be the last nighttime launch for the shuttle
program. Only four more shuttle flights are left.
The Obama Administration has yet to provide specifics on what
happens after the last mission this fall. NASA's back-to-the-moon
Constellation program is a casualty under the new budget plan.
