CALIFORNIA SCIENCE CENTER TO START COMPLEX PROCESS TO DISPLAY SPACE SHUTTLE ENDEAVOUR VERTICALLY

The California Science Center announced that the six-month process will get underway July 20 at the future Samuel Oschin Air and Space Center currently under construction in Exposition Park.

The initial step, dubbed "Go for Stack, will be installation of the bottom portion of the solid rocket boosters known as aft skirts upon which will be stacked the booster segments, the external tank and then Endeavour.

The 20-story tall display will show the shuttle as it would appear waiting on a launch pad.

Endeavour was built as a replacement for the destroyed shuttle Challenger and flew 25 missions between 1992 and 2011.
