At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, visitors are able to see the rare event of a rollaround as space shuttle Endeavour moves away from Launch Pad 39B and turns toward Launch Pad 39A. First motion from pad 39B was at 8:28 a.m. EDT. Endeavour is targeted to launch Nov. 14 on the STS-126 mission. On this 27th mission to the International Space Station, Endeavour will carry the Lightweight Multi-Purpose Experiment Support Structure Carrier and the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module Leonardo that will hold supplies and equipment, including additional crew quarters, additional exercise equipment, spare hardware and equipment for the regenerative life support system.
