Last October, the Space Shuttle
Endeavour made history as it
landed at Los Angeles
International Airport for the last
time.

After making its long,
complicated, and controversial
journey to Los Angeles, space
shuttle Endeavour's public
exhibition is now open. The
shuttle, which flew a total of 25
missions from 1992 to 2012, is in
a temporary housing at the
California Science Center,
where it will remain for about
five more years. At that time,
the shuttle will be relocated
into a new, permanent air and
space wing at the museum,
which will house the shuttle in
takeoff position with its twin
solid rocket boosters and
external tank attached.
