Preparing Our Solid Rocket Boosters

[@shaggydawg5419]

I witness the movement of Endeavor and its external tank some years ago. Both were transported on weekends. It's unfortunate the SRBs gets transported during work day (today and tomorrow morning) so I can't be a part of history otherwise I will have a complete photo sets of the shuttle, ET and SRBs during being hauled to CSC.

Why is Endeavour spelled in old English and not spelled in modern English, eg. Endeavor. After all, this Shuttle is an American product and its name should reflect the modern spelling of the word as that is the standard way of spelling since it has been adopted by our nation of America. One of the attributes of progress is to spend less time doing something, so having one less letter to tap on the keyboard saves time. There are many other words in the old English language that would be applicable such as colour, flavour, programme etc. ( color, flavor, program ) The English language is an evolving language with new words being introduced, so hopefully the modern way of spelling some old words will change throughout the world.
