So 22 Words is hosting a contest for the best kid story to be told in 22 words (Are you seeing the connection?). If you win you get two great Bible story books. I am submitting the following entry about my nephew because every time I think of it I smile. I of course will share my prize with this crazy kid if I win. It is difficult to summarize a story in 22 words, but here is my try.

NASA's space shuttle Endeavour recently returned to the Orbiter Processing Facility (OPF) at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, after its successful mission to the International Space Station. The shuttle, being a reusable spacecraft, has a cycle of preparation, execution and recovery - Endeavour has been through this cycle 22 times now, since 1992. Here is a look at one full cycle for one space shuttle, starting with the landing of Endeavour from its previous mission (STS-123) on March 26th, and ending with its return to Florida 9 months (and 6.6 million miles) later, after mission STS-126.

This is a multi-entry story, 120 photographs over three days. Look for part 1 and part ...
