Shuttle Endeavour Swaps Launch Pads for November Liftoff
The space shuttle Endeavour moved to a new launch pad Thursday to gear up for a supply run to the International Space Station next month.
The slow move began at 8:28 a.m. EDT (1228 GMT) at NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Cape Canaveral, Fla., with engineers hauling Endeavour off its seaside Launch Pad 39B atop a 6 million-pound (2.7 million-kg) crawler carrier. The shuttle arrived at the nearby launch Pad 39A at 4:40 p.m. EDT (2040 GMT) and is due to launch to the space station on Nov. 14.
