Space Shuttle Endeavour
Here she is, sitting on Launch Pad 39A waiting for her final mission. We were lucky enough to visit the Kennedy Space Center on Cape Canaveral just a few days before she was slated to launch after a few delays.
This was as close as the civilians were allowed to get – but I’ll take it. The view was breath-taking. Just seeing her sit there – knowing we were seeing something that was about to make history one final time before being decommissioned and returned to California where she was born. It was a little sad to know that my little ones won’t see another Shuttle Launch after today's, but I hope that they’ll get to see man walk on the moon again sometime soon. Endeavour’s Final Voyage
Here’s a really great video from NASA’s site showing what Endeavour’s Final Voyage will be like.NASA Kennedy Space Center
SpacePirate was feeling pretty under the weather the day we went to the Kennedy Space Center, but I think once he had a little rest, he really enjoyed himself.
The walking Astronaut was really cool, but I think it scared LittleMiss a bit. 
Here’s SpacePirate wearing a NASA Meatball shirt while standing under some of the engines of the SaturnV rocket.
This last shot was taken by LittleMiss. I absolutely adore it for so many reasons: she took it, it’s a great shot of the man I adore, I made that shirt with my fancy Yudu silk screening machine, and he’s standing in front of piece of the SaturnV rocket.
ETA:
GOD SPEED, ENDEAVOUR!
May your final voyage be great
