Snapshots of Endeavour... Inside Orbiter Processing Facility-2 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, Endeavour continues to undergo transition and retirement activities prior to being sent to her final retirement home in downtown Los Angeles later this fall. Endeavour is scheduled to be flown to Southern California and transported (via side streets from Los Angeles International Airport) to the California Science Center, the museum where NASA's youngest orbiter will go on permanent public display, by this September.
