Space shuttle Endeavour blasts off from Florida


    CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida (Reuters) - The U.S. space shuttle Endeavour blasted off from Kennedy Space Centre in Florida on Monday on its final voyage which will deliver a pioneering physics experiment to the International Space Station.

    Endeavour roared off the launch pad at 8:56 a.m. EDT (1:56 p.m. British time), carrying a six-member crew.

    The U.S. space agency NASA plans just one more shuttle mission this summer with sister ship Atlantis before ending the 30-year-old shuttle program.
