Some truly stunning video of the space shuttle Discovery taking a turn around the D.C. mall yesterday on the way to its final landing at Dulles Airport:
I have to say that I actually clapped while watching this. There’s something special about the entire shuttle program, And this graceful pass through the heart of the nation’s capital seems a fitting send-off.

Endeavor is scheduled to be flown to LA in the Fall. It will then travel thru the streets to the California Science Center in Exposition Park. They are building a temporary site for it now. The permanent site is $20M.
The Shuttle should cause many more people to turn out to watch the operation than The Rock. Tens, maybe hundreds of thousands.
The photos over DC were spectacular. NYC will float a shuttle up the Hudson.
Marvelous! Thanks!!
