CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - In the early morning hours, the payload canister with space shuttle Endeavour's STS-126 mission payload inside travels past the Vehicle Assembly Building on its way to Launch Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Inside the canister are the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module Leonardo and the Lightweight Multi-Purpose Experiment Support Structure Carrier. At the pad, the payload canister will release its cargo into the Payload Changeout Room. Later, the payload will be installed in Endeavour's payload bay. Endeavour is targeted for launch on Nov. 14.
