Endeavour is NASA's youngest orbiter, built as a replacement for the shuttle Challenger, which was destroyed along with its crew in 1986.
The orbiter is scheduled to launch six astronauts into space on Monday (May 16) at 8:56 a.m. EDT from NASA's Kennedy Space Center. This final launch will deliver a particle detector called the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer to the International Space Station, along with a set of backup supplies to outfit the station.
