OMG! Somebody nicked Endeavour!!

Oh wait, it's on the other side of the stack.

Thanks for the reminder, Joe. All of the fuss over the Royal nuptials made me plumb forget about Endeavour. Wow, only one more Shuttle flight after Endeavour. I wonder if anyone has produced a mug commemorating the last flight of the Shuttle?

If the Chinese do it'll probably have a pic of a Saturn V.

Good luck, Endeavour.

Just as well Darren. A cold front pushed through and would have blocked my view.
I do feel for the scores of people who went to the Cape only to be let down because of the malfunction.
