Prevent auto word wrap at end of line

I want to prevent automatic word wrap from splitting "7 p.m." so the 7 is on one line and the p.m. is at the margin on the next line down.

I thought that Shift+space or Ctrl+space or Alt+space might work, but they don't. 

I would usually fudge by forcing a hard return before the 7, but my document is fully justified, so the right hand margin cut off before the 7 really stands out. 

What can I do?

Answer
To add a nonbreaking space, press Ctrl+Shift+SpaceBar. (With nonprinting marks displayed, a nonbreaking space is represented by the degree sign.)
