The space shuttle Endeavour, the youngest in the US fleet, has blasted off on its 25th and final mission. The flight is the 134th in the history of Nasa's shuttle programme and the penultimate flight before the three-ship fleet is retired. Sister shuttle Discovery completed its final mission in March and Atlantis is scheduled to close the programme with a last trip to the International Space Station in July.
