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.

Yes it is! I got a pretty good shot of it too.

That's an amazing airplane. I was able to go there a few years ago, and it was definitely worth it.
