Less Than One Week To Final Shuttle Night Launch

NASA Technicians Are Packing Up Endeavour STS-130

At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, prelaunch activities are in full swing this week with the official launch countdown to space shuttle Endeavour's STS-130 mission set to begin at 0200 EST February 4.

Teams at Launch Pad 39A packed the astronauts' spacesuits into Endeavour Monday.

Meanwhile, the six STS-130 crew members who will fly to the International Space Station entered quarantine Sunday and now are on a sleep schedule to match their evening and overnight work hours during the mission. They will conduct final integrated ascent training in the motion base simulator today at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston and will be flying to Kennedy Tuesday night.

Last week, a water suppression system pipe leaked at Kennedy's Launch Control Center and workers have made progress during the weekend drying walls and carpets. This leak is not expected to hamper the liftoff of Endeavour at 0439 EST February 7th.
