NASA announced on July 1, 2010, that it has confirmed the launch dates of STS-133 and STS-134. The space shuttle program is officially active through the end of February 2011.

The U.S. space agency announced on Tuesday, June 22, 2010, that it would like to delay the last two space shuttle missions so the last one lifts off in February 2011, rather than in November 2010.

 

The crew of the NASA STS-131 mission has landed its space shuttle Discovery successfully and safety at the Kennedy Space Center, with the STS-132 crew preparing its mission of the space shuttle Atlantic, which already sits on its KSC launch pad 39A.

 

The space shuttle Endeavour made it to space on Monday, February 8, 2010, as lingering clouds this time did not prevent its launch as it did the day before. STS-130 will now deliver new parts to the Space Station, which will be about 90% complete after these parts are installed.

The February 7, 2010 early-morning liftoff of the space shuttle Endeavour was scrubbed nine minutes before its scheduled launch due to a weather system that came in unexpectedly at the Cape. Let's try it again Monday morning!

The mission of the space shuttle Endeavour and its STS-130 crew is scheduled to launch at 4:39 a.m. EST on February 7, 2010, for its flight to send Tranquility and Cupola to the International Space Station. Catch one of the final liftoffs of a manned U.S. space vehicle on NASA TV.
