SPACE SHUTTLE ENDEAVOUR GLIDES OVER LA

After about twenty years in service the space shuttle Endeavour is retiring. For nearly 30 years the space shuttle program has operated as the public's best known space vehicles and now officially has come to an end, and some wonder does NASA have a replacement program set in place to continue manned mission in space? Some say we may have bigger and better space ships, hidden away in some secret military installation, while other speculate robots and AI machine will take over exploration of outer space. I certainly want to see man missions to Mars and a return to the Moon.

For what ever the reasons to discontinued the space shuttle program, economic or simply obsolete, nevertheless, the news of the final space shuttle was broadcast all over America. As reported in the Los Angeles Times a week ago, it is still intriguing to see and read about the fly-bye of the last of the space shuttle. The Endeavour space shuttle buzzed over LA and San Fransisco flying low enough for everyone to see. A completely awestruck once in a lifetime experience to behold. Later, after safety landing at LAX, the shuttle will stay a few weeks there before making its final journey over the streets of Los Angeles as it travels to its new home at the California Science Center.
