Science applied

Got to go to the LA Science Center with a group of kids, and so much of it is designed to be interactive.

Consider the Hurricane Simulator...adding gale force winds inside the tube...something that we might not ever feel living on the West Coast. Let's try the Earthquake simulator....that's something much more familiar!

Or go inside the aquarium....see the scuba man...he's gonna come over and try to high five you!

and he will swim with all the fishes....sharks included!

But here's the main attraction....that shuttle Endeavor, with lots of media describing its missions, and engine parts.

Hope you get to see it...it's magnificent.

Endeavor!

Took a quick trip downtown to see the newly delivered Endeavor at the Science Center.

 

The hangar is just temporary now, with hopes of building it into a new museum.

The engines are huge.....but you knew that!

One end is all Endeavor/Nasa souvenirs....it draws a good crowd.

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's Endeavour

Los Angeles welcomed the Endeavour today and as a special treat, we could watch it sweep through our fair city.

Somewhere between it's launch today and noon, Angelinos were out in force to get a gander at the piggy-backed Endeavour.

  

Leave it up to JPL to get the shot...cool runnings for a cool spaceship

now grounded with us!
