Most Incredible Time-Lapse Photography That Will Be Posted Today

Link here to LA Times. At the link, at the very top what appears to be a huge photo is actually a video; click on the arrow to start the video.

This is the space shuttle Endeavor being moved from LAX to its "resting place" at the Los Angeles Science Museum. It is now available for viewing even as the display continues to be built around it. It is free to visit/view, but time-stamped tickets are required.

Notice how they raised the space ship a few inches so that it could clear a tree by a few inches. Just one of the most spectacular images.

The best part: seeing all the people from windows yelling, smiling, waiving, enjoying this once-in-a-lifetime view. What a great country.

By the way, I now know where NASCAR drivers go when they retire: out to Beale Air Force Base near Sacramento, CA, to help U-2's land.  In case, the link is broken, this is a story about the USAF replacing its chase vehicles with Chevy Camaros.
