Two space shuttles on fire pads. 09/2008 - Two Space Shuttles on launch pads. 09/2008 - View of shooting steps A and B from the Kennedy Space center in Florida on September 20, 2008. In the foreground, the shuttle Atlantis, in the background, the shuttle Endeavour on firing pad B. This is the first time since July 2001 that two shuttles have been simultaneously on the firing steps. The shuttle Endeavour was ready to assist the shuttle Atlantis for a rescue mission in case of a problem. Finally, the planned flight of the Atlantis shuttle (STS-125, repair of the Hubble satellite) was postponed until May 2009. The shuttle Endeavour collapsed in November 2008 to continue the construction of the international space station (mission STS-126). Space shuttle Atlantis (foreground) sits on Launch Pad A and Endeavour on Launch Pad B at Nasa's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. At the left of each shuttle are the open rotating service structures with the payload changeout rooms revealed. The rotating service structures provide protection for weather and access to the shuttle. For the first time since July 2001, two shuttles are on the launch pads at the same time at the center. Endeavour will stand by at pad B in the unlikely event that a rescue mission is necessary during space shuttle Atlantis' upcoming mission to repair Nasa's Hubble Space Telescope (STS - 125), targeted to launch Oct. 10. After Endeavour is cleared from its duty as a rescue spacecraft, it will be moved to Launch Pad 39A for its STS - 126 mission to the International Space Station (launched in November 2008). STS - 125 has been delayed to 2009
