'''STS-113''' was a [[Space Shuttle]] mission to the [[International Space Station]] (ISS) flown by Space Shuttle ''[[Space Shuttle Endeavour|Endeavour]]''. During the 14-day mission in late 2002, ''Endeavour'' and its crew extended the ISS backbone with the [[Integrated Truss Structure|P1 truss]] and exchanged the [[Expedition 5]] and [[Expedition 6]] crews aboard the station. With Commandercommander [[James D. Wetherbee|Jim Wetherbee]] and Pilotpilot [[Paul S.Lockhart Lockhart(astronaut)|Paul Lockhart]] at the controls, ''Endeavour'' docked with the station on 25 November 2002 to begin seven days of station assembly, spacewalks and crew and equipment transfers. This was the last flight of ''Endeavour''’s last flight before entering its Orbiter Major Modification period until [[STS-118]] in 2007, which includeincluded [[Glass cockpit#NASA Space Shuttle program|modernizing the cockpit]], and also the lastfinal shuttle mission before the [[Space Shuttle Columbia disaster|''Columbia'' disaster]].▼

==Mission highlights==
 
STS-113 was an Assembly Mission (11A) to the [[International Space Station]], delivering the [[Integrated Truss Structure|P1 Truss]] segment, which provides structural support for the Space Station radiators. Mission Specialists [[John Herrington]] and [[Michael López-Alegría]] performed three spacewalks to activate and outfit the P1. The STS-113 crew and both Expedition crews transferred about 1,969 kilograms (4,340 pounds) of cargo between the shuttle and station.
 
Line 122 ⟶ 118:
Also carried aboard STS-113 was the Micro-Electromechanical System ([[Microelectromechanical systems|MEMS]]) based Pico Satellite Inspector (MEPSI). This payload deployed two small satellites which are connected via a {{convert|15|m}} tether.
 
STS-113 was the last successful mission before [[STS-107]]. [[Christopher Loria|Gus Loria]] was originally scheduled to fly as the pilot for this mission, but was replaced due to an injury. His replacement was [[Paul Lockhart (astronaut)|Paul S. Lockhart]]. John Herrington, a member of the [[Chickasaw Nation]], became the first enrolled member of a [[Native Americans in the United States|Native American]] tribe to fly in space.{{refn|group=note|[[William R. Pogue]] was of [[Choctaw]] ancestry and was a crewman aboard {{Nowrap|[[Skylab 4]]}} in 1973–1974, but he was not an enrolled member of the Choctaw.}}
 
STS-113 was the final mission during which Russian cosmonauts flew on the Space Shuttle.
 
Because ''Endeavour'' entered its Orbiter Major Modification period after the [[Space Shuttle Columbia Disasterdisaster|''Columbia'' disaster]], this was the last shuttle mission to fly with an analog-style cockpit.
