During the 11-day mission, the crew's prime objective is to attach the laboratory to the Harmony module, adding to the station's size and capabilities. Image Credit: NASA/Sandra Joseph, Tony Gray, Robert Murray

Endeavour lands at Kennedy Space Center With commander Scott Kelly at the controls and six other astronauts on board, Space Shuttle Endeavour glided to a perfect landing at Kennedy Space Center in Florida to cap more than 12 days in space. STS-118 saw a new piece added to the International Space Station and 5,800 pounds of equipment and supplies transferred to the orbiting laboratory.

The landing also brought to an end teacher-turned-astronaut Barbara Morgan's first flight into space.

12:32 p.m. - Endeavour and its crew of seven astronauts landed safely on Kennedy Space Center's Runway 15, closing the book on the STS-118 mission to the International Space Station. Before the astronauts depart for the crew quarters, they'll take part in the traditional walkaround of the orbiter that has been their home for nearly two weeks. Once Endeavour is fully safed and ready to leave the runway, it will be towed to the nearby Orbiter Processing Facility, where it will begin processing for its next mission.

During the third spacewalk astronauts Rick Mastracchio and Clay Anderson (out of frame) relocated the S-Band Antenna Sub-Assembly
from Port 6 (P6) to Port 1 (P1) truss, installed a new transponder on P1 and retrieved the P6 transponder. Image credit: NASA

The third spacewalk occurred Wednesday. It featured preparations for the relocation of the Port 6 truss from atop the station to the end of the Port 5 truss when STS-120 visits later this year. A fourth spacewalk took place Saturday in which an antenna was installed and two materials science experiments were retrieved for return to Earth.

In other activities, the two crews transferred cargo between Endeavour and the station.

Space Shuttle Atlantis lifts off on mission STS-117. Image credit: NASA.Atlantis Space Station Bound! Cheers and shouts can be heard throughout the Kennedy Space Center as Atlantis roars off the launch pad into a clear blue Florida sky!
Within 10 minutes, the shuttle will be in orbit around the Earth. Within 24 hours Atlantis will undergo the rendezvous pitch maneuver and thermal protection system tile inspection. By flight day 3, Atlantis will be ready to dock with the International Space Station.

Mission and Crew, Mission STS-117 is the Space Shuttle Program's 21st mission to the International Space Station. Rick Sturckow will command the mission and Lee Archambault will serve as Atlantis' pilot. Mission Specialists Patrick Forrester, James Reilly, Steven Swanson, John Olivas and Flight Engineer Clayton Anderson round out the crew to deliver the S3/S4 starboard truss segments, batteries and another pair of solar arrays to the space station. Anderson will replace Expedition 15 Flight Engineer Sunita Williams on station and Williams will return to Earth aboard Atlantis.
