Photos: Shuttle Endeavour's Final Mission - Part 2

Shuttle Endeavour, the Space Station and Earth

Backdropped by a night time view of the Earth and the starry sky, the Space Shuttle Endeavour is photographed docked at the International Space Station on May 28, 2011. The STS-134 astronauts left the station the next day on May 29, after delivering the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer and performing four spacewalks during Endeavour's final mission.

Endeavour Backs Away

Shuttle Endeavour backs away from the International Space Station after undocking from the outpost for one last time on May 29, 2011 during the STS-134 mission. This view was recorded by a camera on the exterior of the space station, part of which is visible at bottom right

Parts of the International Space Station and docked shuttle Endeavour are featured in this image photographed by NASA astronaut Mike Fincke using a fish-eye lens attached to an electronic still camera, during the STS-134 mission's fourth and last spacewalk - the last EVA ever to be performed by a NASA shuttle crew on May 27, 2011.

A View to Behold

This stunning photo shows two astronauts, Endeavour shuttle commander Mark Kelly and space station flight engineer Ron Garan (both of NASA) gazing out at Earth through the space station's Cupola. A bright blue Earth provides a breathtaking backdrop. The photo was taken on May 25, 2011 by NASA astronaut Mike Fincke during the third spacewalk of Endeavour's STS-134 mission.

Feustel Spacewalking

With various components of the International Space Station in the view, NASA astronauts Andrew Feustel and Michael Fincke (not pictured) conduct STS-134 mission's third spacewalk. It took place on May 25, 2011 (Flight Day 10).
