The Endeavor is Going on its Last Flight

The Space Shuttle Endeavor
         One of NASA's most recently constructed space shuttles, the Endeavor, is going on its last flight in early July.  The Endeavor has gone on 24 trips so far, and has covered over 110 million miles of space.  Fortunately, all flights on this space shuttle have been executed perfectly, and there is very little chance that something will go wrong now.  Right now, Endeavor is up in the air and NASA has two chances to land it in Florida this Wednesday.  If they miss the first one, the second opening will be at 4:11 AM.  If there is a problem with the weather, or if there are kinks in the mechanisms of the Endeavor, the crew may be forced to land in California or Mexico, as they may miss the two spots open for landing in Florida.
