About this work

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the aft end of space shuttle Endeavour appears as it backs out of Orbiter Processing Facility-1 (OPF-1). Endeavour is switching places with shuttle Discovery which temporarily has been housed in the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). Both shuttles will stop briefly outside OPF-3 for a "nose-to-nose" photo opportunity. Discovery then will be rolled into OPF-1 and Endeavour into the VAB.
