Enterprise in NY

On Friday April 27, the shuttle Enterprise arrived to NY, where it will be on display at the Intrepid. It's currently at JFK and you can see it as you pass by on the highway. NASA retired the Enterprise in July 2011 after 30 years of orbital service. A total of five shuttles reached space between 1981 and 2011, but only three of these vehicles remain. Like Challenger, the shuttle Columbia was lost along with its entire crew during a mission. The orbiter broke apart while re-entering Earth's atmosphere in February 2003.
