Good return on the Earth Endeavour
STS-113: Another delay. Landing set for Saturday
A stalled cold front at the Kennedy Space Center, resulting in rain and low clouds, will keep Endeavour aloft for another 24 hours.
STS-113 will try today's second opportunity
Flight controllers waved off STS-113's first landing opportunity of the day at Kennedy Space Center, Fla., due to low cloud ceilings and rain.
