Endeavour lifted off Saturday, Nov. 23 at 7:49:47 p.m. EST on the
STS-113 mission to the International Space Station. The
seven-member crew is preparing to dock to the Station Monday, Nov.
25, at 4:26 p.m. EST. Initial data indicates the Solid Rocket
Boosters performed nominally and will return to Hangar AF at Cape
Canaveral today. Freedom Star will arrive at 12 p.m. with the left
booster, and Liberty Star will arrive at 1:30 p.m. with the right
booster.
At the pad, early inspections show that the pad
sustained no unusual damage from Saturday’s launch. Clean up
work has begun in preparation for the next mission scheduled at
Pad 39-A, STS-107 in January 2003.
