A crane is lifted away from space shuttle Endeavour while United Space Alliance technicians complete.

In Orbiter Processing Facility-2 at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, a large crane is lifted away from space shuttle Endeavour while United Space Alliance technicians complete the installation of the left orbital maneuvering system OMS pod.

The OMS pod underwent complete deservicing and cleaning at White Sands Space Harbor in New Mexico, part of the transition and retirement processing of each shuttle. Endeavour is being prepared for public display at the California Science Center in Los Angeles. Over the course of its 19-year career, Endeavour spent 299 days in space during 25 missions.
