The payload canister containing the payload for space shuttle Endeavour's STS-126 mission backs away from the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Inside the canister are the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module Leonardo and the Lightweight Multi-Purpose Experiment Support Structure Carrier. The canister will be transported to the Canister Rotation Facility to raise it to vertical and then will be taken to Launch Pad 39A. At the pad, the payload canister will release its cargo into the Payload Changeout Room. Later, the payload will be installed in Endeavour's payload bay. Endeavour is targeted for launch on Nov. 14.
