Seeing the Endeavor fly over Hollywood was one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time. Totally badass.
I remember when I was a kid I went to Cape Canaveral with my dad to watch a shuttle launch. Of course the damn thing was postponed due to weather. I did get to see one of the shuttles up close though.
I also remember when the Challenger exploded. My mom still has a copy of the newspaper from the day it happened.
It's really amazing to see this thing up close in such dramatic fashion, and also quite sad to know that it's being retired. I'm definitely going to go visit the Endeavor at the California Science Center.
