Five different orbiters flew into space as part of the program— Columbia , Challenger , Discovery , Atlantis and Endeavour —for a total of missions. Counted together, the space shuttles have carried people, flown over million miles, and spent over 1, days in orbit. The space shuttle was actually made up of several separate components. The main engines are part of the orbiter. All the components were reusable except for the external tank, which by design burned up in the atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean following each launch.
Built to replace space shuttle Challenger , Endeavour was the final orbiter to join the shuttle fleet. Many newer features were added to Endeavour during construction, such as updated steering mechanisms, upgraded plumbing and electrical connections to allow for longer missions, and a drag chute that reduced wear and tear on the shuttle's brakes and tires. Many of the innovations that were developed for Endeavour were added later to the other shuttles in the fleet. Endeavour first launched on May 7, for mission STS The capture of the satellite did not go as smoothly as planned, but the crew aboard was able to complete the mission through a series of four spacewalks—the most ever completed on a shuttle mission up to that time.
One of the spacewalks was the longest ever recorded up to that time, and the second-longest ever—over eight hours! That first mission set a precedent for Endeavour , whose string of 25 missions was marked with ingenuity and success. This mission was designed to correct a flaw in the Hubble's main mirror. During the mission, several elements were installed to fix the Hubble's "vision," which the popular media described as giving the Hubble "contact lenses" or "glasses.
Endeavour 's final mission, in May , delivered spare parts to the International Space Station, including parts for the Dextre arm it had installed many missions before. Popular shows like Endeavour are often available on shady streaming sites but we strongly advise against using these. The videos on such sites are often laggy and low-resolution, plus they can be taken down for copyright violation at any moment, meaning you might not even get to see the end of the series.
All of the services showing Endeavour are region-locked. Just follow the steps below to stream Endeavour abroad. Doing so is fairly straightforward, although you will be asked to enter a British postal code. Looking to watch older episodes?

On the other hand, watching seasons 1—6 online is more difficult in Australia. First of all, this season will be shorter than in previous years, with just three episodes. So what does this mean for our favorite detective? Series writer Russell Lewis has hinted that Morse will be thrown into an unfamiliar age in season seven, one where industrialization and globalization collide with the idea of small-town living.
