US space shuttle Endeavour launched from Florida

The US space shuttle Endeavour has blasted off from its Florida home port on a rare night launch, carrying equipment bound for the International Space Station. Endeavour will take the first part of a Japanese space lab to the ISS during the 16-day mission. The seven-strong crew will install a two-armed robot designed to carry out repairs outside the orbiting space station. Endeavour, which flew its first mission in 1992, is expected to spend 12 days at the ISS. After Endeavour leaves the ISS, Europe's first cargo ship, an unmanned Automated Transfer Vehicle called Jules Verne, will get its chance to dock. The ATV was launched from Europe's spaceport in French Guiana on Saturday night. It will orbit near the station during the shuttle's visit, ready to move into position in early April.

NASA's Space Shuttle Endeavour Set to Land Wednesday

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla., March 24 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The space shuttle Endeavour crew is expected to complete its 16-day flight to the International Space Station with a landing at NASA's Kennedy Space Center on Wednesday, March 26. The STS-123 mission began March 11 and delivered the first segment of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's Kibo laboratory and the Canadian Space Agency's two-armed robotic system, known as Dextre. The flight also brought a new crew member to the station and will return an astronaut who has spent nearly seven weeks aboard the complex. NASA managers will evaluate weather conditions at Kennedy before permitting Endeavour to return to Earth. Wednesday landing opportunities at Kennedy are at 7:05 p.m. EDT and 8:39 p.

Space shuttle Endeavour launches with Japanese lab

Space shuttle Endeavour soared into space Tuesday, carrying parts of a Japanese laboratory that is to become the largest and last research component of the International Space Station. With its installation Japan gains a foothold on the ISS alongside the United States, Russia and Europe, whose laboratory Columbus was delivered to the station in February. Endeavour roared into space at 0628 GMT Tuesday, in a rare night launch from the Kennedy Space Center here -- its motors and booster rockets casting a glare bright as midday along the Florida coast for about 30 seconds. In 53 seconds the shuttle had already attained a speed of about 2,425 kilometers (1,507 miles) per hour -- about twice the speed of sound. Two minutes after launch Endeavour successfully jettisoned its twin solid rocket boosters.
