Eight Years Ago This Week, Something Special Happened

Space Shuttle Endeavour came home to it's final resting place.
Many of the locals came out to support Endeavour along its journey from LAX to the California Science Center.
For many of us in the industry, it was the end of an era.
Here is a time lapse video of that journey.

Thank you for your post. With your permission, I'd like to post a snapshot I took of the shuttle "Discovery" on its East Coast retirement voyage.

Absolutely.
Thanks. Attached is my snapshot of the shuttle "Discovery" being flown to Dulles airport outside of Washington DC. It was moved to a museum near the airport. It was quite a sight to see. Incredible that a Boeing 747 (albeit modified) can fly with that large object on top. Impressive machines. Impressive history.

What a great video. Makes me proud to be an American and takes me back to a time when there wasn't so much hate on the streets.
Thank you.
