Here’s a little about... Endeavour's STS-130 Mission.
Commander George Zamka will lead the STS-130 mission to the International Space Station aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour. Terry Virts will serve as the pilot. Mission Specialists are Nicholas Patrick, Robert Behnken, Stephen Robinson and Kathryn Hire. Virts will be making his first trip to space.
Shuttle Endeavour and its crew will deliver to the space station a third connecting module, the Italian-built Tranquility node and the seven-windowed cupola, which will be used as a control room for robotics. The mission will feature three spacewalks.
Liftoff from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida is scheduled for February 7, 2010, at 4:39am EST .

P.S. I love to watch videos of the shuttle launches, especially the separation of the solid fuel booster.

It's a shame though that President Obama is PULLING the plug... and any HOPE... for an In Our Lifetime Moon mission or one to Mars for that Matter.
