The Space shuttle Enterprise, mounted atop a 747, flew over New York city today. The shuttle will eventually be put on permanent display at the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum in New York.

Nice!
Too bad it won’t be flying to the moon anymore. NASA’s gotta work on appeasing Muslim’s or some baloney like that. November can’t come soon enough!
Wow! The end of an era.
It is a shame that this is the end of an era. I saw this same site flying around NewYork City and Westchester County in 1981 while living in Scarsdale. To think that the USA has given so much money in foreign aid but now some of those countries are going into space and the US cannot. You have to wonder!
It would still be flying if the enviromental moonbats at the EPA
hadn’t made them change the glue formulae for the heat tiles.
…the unintended consequences of
letting the inmates run the assylum
Or, maybe intended?
I heard this said the other day. When you are looking at the shuttle fly over it is not a cause to celebrate. You are truley looking at a funeral procession.
