Just had the space shuttle fly over my building on its way to Dulles Airport to be retired at the Air and Space museum here in VA. It was pretty awesome.

Endeavour was just flown over downtown L.A. I'm forty-something floors up, and it seemed like I could reach out and touch it as it flew over City Hall and looped past the Hollywood sign. I hope some of you in SoCal got to see it; it was amazing."What are you prepared to do?" - Jimmy Malone

So far no flyover here in Boise.
I'll keep watch and update if anything changes.

No flyover in SLC either, though I doubt we'd have seen anything because of all the smog here.Originally posted by Lost_Student View PostSo far no flyover here in Boise.

Stupid mountains. Billions of years of the earth doing its thing and they have to choose here to form.

No smog, smoke from Idaho and not from the offensive dumpster fire last night.Originally posted by il Padrino Ute View PostNo flyover in SLC either, though I doubt we'd have seen anything because of all the smog here.

Yeah, I guess it's more smoke than smog here as well. Still, stupid mountains!Originally posted by Coach McGuirk View PostNo smog, smoke from Idaho and not from the offensive dumpster fire last night."Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." - Winston Churchill

Endeavor made a swing around downtown L.A. this morning. This was the view from the helipad on our building (aided by a pretty good lens).

Good points. The high amount of smoke in the air above the Treasure Valley probably forced NASA to call off any planned flyovers here.Originally posted by Coach McGuirk View PostNo smog, smoke from Idaho and not from the offensive dumpster fire last night."Seriously, is there a bigger high on the whole face of the earth than eating a salad?"--SeattleUte

This is cool. A lot of planning and work to move Endeavour 12 miles to its final resting place.
