CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - Space shuttle Endeavour pulled up to the international space station and docked Wednesday, kicking off almost two weeks of demanding construction work.
Before the late-night linkup, Endeavour's commander, Dominic Gorie, guided the shuttle through a 360-degree backflip to allow for full photographic surveillance.
It's one of the many safety-related procedures put in place following the Columbia tragedy in 2003.
