I was about to have a heart attack because I thought you said it was "most definitely researched"...whew! Relieved to find out there are still people who know their Star Trek!

Next question shall be a Music question.

"Our God is greater,
Our God is stronger,
God, you are higher than any other.
Our God is Healer,
Awesome in power,
Our God, Our God."

I assume you don't want all of the song, just the chorus. This was not researched.

Wow, so I made a mistake here...Hmm...I found different answers depending on where I researched...The answer I was looking for was the July 20, 1944 plot, which has become a national holiday for the Germans (what I learned from the news the other day). However, with some research, I did find that some sources consider Albert Speer to have been the final attempt, even though he only had some idea of a plan and never took action. It was hard to tell which plans over the years people were counting as attempts on his life...interesting! Well, to me at least...I will give you credit for your answer...took me some searching to learn about Albert!

Next question is a general knowledge question.
What is the name of the space shuttle most recently launched by NASA?
