WHILE AMERICA sits down tomorrow to enjoy the Super Bowl game, space shuttle Endeavour will be launched for a thirteen day mission from Florida, delivering a connecting and a viewing port at the International Space Station.

This thirteen day mission would undertake the following:

* Install last connecting hub at the International Space Station, Tranquility, to house life support equipment, a toilet and excercise gear for onboard crew.

* Install viewing port, a dome shaped module with a circular top window and six others.

* Conduct three spacewalks for installation of new modules. These will be done by astronauts Robert Behnken and Nicholas Patrick and overseen by crewmate Stephen Robinson.

Those who wish to watch the live launch tomorrow can catch it on quite a few websites which will carry its streaming live videos.

* Deliver new scientific experiments, including one on the Jatropha curcus plant, to see if its production can be sped up for commercial use.

* Deliver parts for the space station's broken water recycling system, which purifies urine and other waste water into useable water for drinking, cooking and other uses.
