Space Shuttle retirement update.

First off, I wanna correct some information I've been telling in this thread. Space Shuttle Endeavour moves to the Vehicle Assembly building Thursday, August 16th. Not Tuesday, August 14th.

Today, Endeavour hit a huge milestone. The crew-access hatch on Space Shuttle Endeavour was closed for the final time. This concludes all work done on the flight deck and mid deck of Endeavour. Pictures of Endeavour's hatch closing will be posted ASAP.

Before Endeavour's crew-access hatch was closed, two launch and entry seats were installed on Endeavour's aft flight deck. Endeavour's flight deck has completed final preparations for the orbiter's cross-country ferry flight to California.
