CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, space shuttle Endeavour enters the open bay of the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB), where it temporarily will be stored.  Endeavour is swapping places with Discovery, which will resume decommissioning activities in Orbiter Processing Facility-1 (OPF-1), in the background.  The shuttles stopped briefly outside OPF-3 for a unique "nose-to-nose" photo opportunity.In OPF-1, Discovery will undergo further preparations for public display at the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Virginia. Endeavour will be stored in the VAB until October when it will be moved into OPF-2 for further work to get it ready for public display at the California Science Center in Los Angeles.

VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -  Orbital Sciences L-1011 aircraft begins to taxi for takeoff from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California to the Kwajalein Atoll, a part of the Marshall Islands in the Pacific Ocean.  Under its wing is NASAs Interstellar Boundary Explorer, or IBEX, spacecraft and Pegasus XL rocket.  Departing from Kwajalein, the Pegasus rocket will be dropped from under the wing of the L-1011 over the Pacific Ocean to carry the spacecraft approximately 130 miles above Earth and place it in orbit.  Then, the spacecrafts own engine will boost it to its final high-altitude orbit (about 200,000 miles high) — most of the way to the Moon. The IBEX satellite will make the first map of the boundary between the Solar System and interstellar space.  IBEX science will be led by the Southwest Research Institute of San Antonio, Texas.  IBEX is targeted for launch over the Pacific Oct. 19.
