Space shuttle Endeavour has returned home safely after two weeks in space, having delivered the final US module and a ‘room with a view’ to the International Space Station.
According to NASA, STS-130 Commander George Zamka guided Endeavour to a landing at the Kennedy Space Center’s Shuttle Landing Facility at 10:20 pm EST, to wrap up a 5.7 million mile mission.
Behnken and Patrick conducted three spacewalks during the mission totaling 18 hours, 14 minutes. That brings the totals for station assembly to 140 spacewalks and more than 873 hours, as per the report by NASA. Endeavour’s 13-day flight included three spacewalks and the delivery of a connecting module that would increase the International Space Station’s interior space.
