Space shuttle Endeavour is scheduled to blast off from NASA Kennedy Space Center's Launch Pad 39A at 3:47 P.M. local time on Friday en route to the International Space Station (ISS)--the second-to-last mission for NASA's 34-year old shuttle program. On board this time will be a six-member crew commanded by astronaut Mark Kelly (husband of Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords , who survived an assassination attempt in January). [More]
