(Tulsa-AP) -- Tomorrow's scheduled launch of the space shuttle Endeavour will have a Tulsa flavor.

Major components for construction of the International Space Station will be on board the shuttle, including a system manufactured by Boeing aerospace workers in Tulsa.

The Integrated Equipment Assembly was manufactured in Tulsa. It's a collection of power system electronics, interconnections and a cooling system.

The I-E-A will process the electricity that's generated for astronauts' use on the space station.

The 110 (m) million dollar station is due for completion in 2007.
