US-SPACE-SHUTTLE-ENDEAVOUR-FILES
(FILES) In this file photo dated March 10, 2011 shows US space shuttle Endeavour begining its move from the VAB to launch pad 39A at Kennedy Space Center, Florida at Kennedy Space Center, Florida for her final planned launch on April 19 to the International Space Station. The US space agency said it will announce the museums that will host the three retiring space shuttles on April 12, 2011 during an event to mark the 30th anniversary of the first shuttle launch. The US shuttle program is set to close for good later this year, after the final missions by Endeavour in April and Atlantis in June. Discovery ended its last journey to the International Space Station in March. The question of where the iconic shuttles will be displayed has prompted a flurry of speculation, as the locations are expected to see a surge in visitor traffic by tourists eager for an up-close look at the journeyed spacecraft.
