Thanks everyone. It's been a sad say on the Space Coast. Feeling the finality. Locals that have been doing their jobs with no promise of the future are feeling nervous. There is chatter that the vehicle assembly building is slated to be torn down if it isn't put to use soon. It was built & used long before the shuttle & should continue. So many that are still around here put their life into all this, generations of hard work & knowledge. To not see it continued in some form is freaking people out.

Glad to see she brought her air of patriotism, pride & celebration with her to D.C...we are certainly missing it here.

I should have some photos from today uploaded later.

This pic shows it best.. I was surprised how dirty Discovery was. Sounded like they'll clean her up as they ready it for the museum.

From what I was told Discovery is still dirty from the last flight. They usually clean them up when they come back but I think due to budget cuts & such decontamination & cleaning is to be done at the museum.
