I heard there were only 3 left but when I checked out the NASA site, it listed these:
Date: April 5 +
Launch Vehicle: Space Shuttle Discovery
Launch Time: 6:21 a.m. EDT
Description: Space shuttle Discovery will carry a Multi-Purpose Logistics Module filled with science racks that will be transferred to laboratories of the International Space Station.
Date: May 14 +
Launch Vehicle: Space Shuttle Atlantis
Launch Time: 2:28 p.m. EDT
Description: Space shuttle Atlantis mission will carry an integrated cargo carrier to deliver maintenance and assembly hardware, including spare parts for space station systems. In addition, the second in a series of new pressurized components for Russia, a Mini Research Module, will be permanently attached to the bottom port of the Zarya module.
Date: July 29 +
Launch Vehicle: Space Shuttle Endeavour
Launch Time: 7:51 a.m. EDT
STS-134 Description: Space shuttle Endeavour will deliver an EXPRESS Logistics Carrier-3 (ELC-3) and an Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) to the International Space Station.
Date: Sept. 16 +
Launch Vehicle: Space Shuttle Discovery
Launch Time: 11:57 a.m. EDT
STS-133 Description: Space shuttle Discovery will deliver the Express Logistics Carrier 4 (ELC4), a Multi-Purpose Logistics Module (MLPM) and critical spare components to the International Space Station.
As well, there are some listed for 2011.
DH loves space and we're thinking of taking a spontaneous trip to see one of the last launches since we happened into a 4-nite stay at Cocoa Beach. We were at the KSC in December so will probably just watch it from the area.
We're flexible on dates. Any suggestions on which one to see? Is there a time of day that's more likely to actually take off?
Any input much appreciated!
cheers,
