Last Launch
On February 24, 2011, Space Shuttle Discovery launched from Kennedy Space Center's Launch Complex 39-A to begin its final orbital flight. Discovery was the workhorse of the fleet, flying more missions and carrying more crew members than any other shuttle.  It was retired from service on March 9, 2011.
