Live at KSC: Endeavour Is On A Roll!



Endeavour is on its way to Kennedy Space Center's Launch Complex 39B after mission managers looked at the weather forecast and cleared the shuttle for the 4.2-mile move.

First motion came at 11:15 p.m. The trip is expected to take seven hours to complete.

If all goes well, you should be able to watch what amounts to sequential still video of the move by refreshing this page, which features live video feeds from the Launch Complex 39 area.

The image on the top left should spotlight Endeavour's creep out of the assembly building and then follow the vehicle as it makes it way down the crawlerway toward pad 39B. The image on the right is a video feed at Launch Complex 39A, where Atlantis is being readied for launch.

We'll provide live video feeds throughout the seven-hour move and we'll also webcast live NASA TV coverage of the rollout starting at 6:30 a.m. Simply click here or on the NASA TV box on the righthand side of The Flame Trench to launch our new-and-improved NASA TV viewer. And go to our space chat section to tell us what you think.
