I had been wanting to see the Space Shuttle Discovery for quite some time. I only live about 3 hours from the Udvar-Hazy Center in Washington D.C. This past weekend I finally got the chance and it was glorious! If you don't know, this was the shuttle that carried the Hubble Space Telescope into orbit.

I was there right after they I installed it and they had that portside hatch open with poeple still working inside. You could sort of see inside it. Was cool The Concorde was very new there then too and stank of Jet-A.
