Endeavour: NASA's Youngest Shuttle, OV-105 - the fifth and final space shuttle to be built. Endeavour flew into space 25 times. Among other career highlights, its crew members performed the first Hubble Space Telescope servicing mission. In this picture, Endeavour is being prepared for its next mission on launch pad LC-39A. The launch of mission STS-123 was on March 11, 2008. Endeavour will remain on display in the California Science Center, only an hour's drive from Palmdale, where its journey to space began.
