A reporter visited the Kennedy Space Center's Orbiter Processing Facility to learn how shuttle technicians prepared Endeavour for mission STS-126. The reporter interviewed Ken Tenbusch, the NASA flow director, who explained that shuttle flow is the process of taking the shuttle vehicle from landing, moving it to the Orbiter Processing Facility, and conducting all the necessary processing and checks before its next mission.
