Smithsonian Awaits Shuttle

The Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum is preparing to welcome the space shuttle Discovery into its collection, the Associated Press reports. Smithsonian Secretary Wayne Clough says the shuttle will be flown to Washington Dulles International Airport on the back of a Boeing 747 in April. A flyover is also planned above the nation's capital on April 17. The Discovery will makes its final home at the museum's massive hangar in Northern Virginia. The remaining Shuttle Endeavour will travel to the California Science Center in Los Angeles in the second half of the year.
