They Came In Peace For All Mankind
The Space Shuttle Discovery moved to its new home at the Udvar-Hazy Center of the Smithsonian Institution’s National Air and Space Museum. Discovery was transported on the back of a Shuttle Carrier Aircraft and was escorted by fighter jets.
Discovery is the oldest remaining spacefaring shuttle, traveled 149 million miles, and is the most-flown human-carrying spacecraft.
I went down the the National Mall and watched the Shuttle make a few passes around DC landmarks.
