Do you remember when the space shuttle Discovery was placed atop a Boing 747 and flown to Dulles Airport?

On this day 2012
The next day the Discovery was placed on display at the Smithsonian Institution National Air and Space Museum.

I remember every space shuttle. My mom got me to watch the launch of the Columbia by buying me a little space shuttle, and then telling me I couldn't have it until it launched. We watched it together, and she gave me the toy shuttle.
