AmericaJR’s Jason Rzucidlo recently visited the California Science Center to check out the Endeavour space shuttle! The United States Congress approved the construction of Endeavour in 1987 to replace Challenger, which was destroyed in 1986. It embarked on its first mission, STS-49, in May 1992 and its 25th and final mission, STS-134, in May 2011. Guests who come to see Endeavour will begin their experience in “Endeavour Together: Parts & People,” a companion exhibit featuring artifacts from Endeavour and the external tank. Following their visit to Endeavour Together, guests will be directed to the Samuel Oschin Pavilion to see Endeavour.
