Before I talk about the Space Shuttle, the idea of this forum is to
talk about space or astronomy topics. If you are leaving a message,
just adding a web address is pointless so please if you are going to
leave a message, please have something to say.
The seven-member STS-118 crew is preparing for its return to Earth
aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour after a successful stay at the
International Space Station.
Mission managers continue to monitor Hurricane Dean. Early Monday
Dean, with winds near 150 mph, was about 150 miles southeast of
Grand Cayman, moving west at about 20 mph.
The STS-118 crew members spent almost nine days at the international
outpost. They continued the on-orbit construction of the station and
transferred tons of cargo between the two spacecraft. The STS-118
crew conducted four spacewalks at the station. The two major
objectives were the installation of the S5 and the replacement of a
failed attitude control gyroscope.
I have not yet updated the STS-118 page on ASG.

various ebays and other sites. Bookmark the page if your an ebayer.
