NASA makes mistakes too!



Endeavor or Endeavour?

Oops - Seems someone at NASA forgot how to spell the Shuttle Endeavour's name. They rolled-out a banner for the big roll-out of the shuttle but forgot the "u" in the name.
They spelled it Endeavor, which is a correct spelling of the word, but the spelling with the "u" is also correct and that's the way this shuttle was named.
The folk who made the banner probably spell checked it. And if they spelled it with a "u" their spell checker might have said that's incorrect just like mine is telling me right now. The "u" version of the word is typically a British spelling.
