The shuttle Endeavour is towed through the door of Orbiter Processing Facility-2 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida after its space mission in February 2010. Endeavour is currently due for retirement after its last scheduled flight in April, but there's talk of keeping the orbiter in flight-ready condition in one of the OPF buildings rather than sending it to a museum.NASA is considering a plan to keep the space shuttle Endeavour in flight-like condition after its last scheduled mission, a move that could lead to its transformation into a privatized spaceship rather than a museum piece.
