KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -- Twin columns of flame spew from the solid rocket boosters lifting Space Shuttle Endeavour out of the smoke and steam and into the night sky. Liftoff occurred on time at 10:06:01 p.m. EST. The Shuttle and its five-member crew will deliver U.S. solar arrays to the International Space Station and be the first Shuttle crew to visit the Station’s first resident crew. The 11-day mission includes three spacewalks. This marks the 101st mission in Space Shuttle history and the 25th night launch. Endeavour is expected to land at KSC Dec. 11 at 6:19 p.m. EST
