"The STS-118 crew is making final preparations for its return to Earth aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour to complete a successful assembly mission to the International Space Station. Landing is scheduled for 12:32 p.m. EDT at Kennedy Space Center, Fla."
One thing I don't think I've heard concerning the tile issue is the danger in repairing it. It isn't like NASA is blowing off the issue saying it isn't a problem. The inherent danger in the EVA for repair outweighs the concern of the tile damage.

Hooray! It's always a relief. Wow. I didn't even realize there was a teacher on board. And they waited this long after Challenger to try again?
