Endeavour was launched into orbit on November 14th. The crew added sleeping compartments
to the space station, as the number of astronauts living on board will increase from the current
3 to 6 next year.They also installed a system that purifies used water into drinking water.
Endeavour landed at Edwards Air Force Base in California at 4:25 PM Sunday, local time.
It was initially scheduled to touch down at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, but was
rerouted because of bad weather.
The space shuttle Endeavour has safely returned from a mission to the International Space
Station. The US space agency NASA will now start preparing for another shuttle launch in
February that will carry Japanese astronaut Koichi Wakata on board.
The next shuttle carrying Wakata is scheduled to be launched on February 12th.
