Space Shuttle Atlantis Rollby

Once again, while driving into work, I captured this photo, using my iPhone of the Space Shuttle Atlantis as it was moved south along Kennedy Parkway from the VAB to the KSC Visitor Center, with a brief stop for employees to look at it at the Schwartz road intersection.

Last Shuttle KSC Flyby

This morning the retired Space Shuttle Endeavor on top of the NASA 747 carrier aircraft departed the Kennedy Space Center Shuttle Landing Facility on its way to the California Science Center in Los Angeles.  It made several low passes over the space center before leaving. Quickly grabbing the iPhone I captured this video driving into work on Kennedy Pkwy heading north towards the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB), the Shuttle is seen flying a final low pass approach to runway 33.
