After more than five months of storage inside bay 4 of the Vehicle Assembly Building, the retired space shuttle Endeavour was rolled back over to Orbiter Processing Facility 2 on Feb. 1 to resume preparations for museum display.

Endeavour is scheduled to depart the Kennedy Space Center in October for delivery to the California Science Center in Los Angeles, the ship's final resting place.
