Imagine waking up and there is a fricking spaceshuttle outside your house
that'd be awesome
Imagine calling the insurance company telling them a space shuttle hit your house...that would be special ;)
Imagine you open the window and they tell you : Welcome aboard the Endeavour commander

The endeavor attracted a diverse group of people from all over the world. Who woulda’ thought that a space shuttle would cruise threw Inglewood and South Central Los Angeles. It was the most fun that I ever had on Crenshaw Blvd. I will cherish the memory of that day forever.
It was a coming together of humanity. I was honored to have been a part of it.
Yeah it was fun lol
aid it wouldn't couldn't shouldn't be done but they did it and kids who my never go to Exposition Park saw it first hand yesss❤❤❤❤
It's a shame average people can't commune with the spirits of space flight more often.
Inglewood, my old town. Wishing I could've been there more than anything. And for my dad to be there also as he loved aviation. ❤️
I worked around the shuttles for 18 years and it was amazing. I started with the Endeavor in 1992 and ended with her in 2011 and now she followed me here to Cali. It was a sad day when we got laid off and the retirement of the shuttles. It was something to be proud of.
No one cares

I was lucky to be part of this journey for Endeavor. I am not going lie, I cried when she started out from the hanger at LAX. To see her up close and her scars from many missions was awesome.
"She"?
"Her"?

Pretty much how I felt when I saw Space Shuttle Discovery in an Air & Space museum in Northern Virginia. At one point for a good half minute I was in that hanger with Discovery alone. Chills down my spine.

Imagine having flown countless missions to space and back again, knowing that two others were lost in tragedies.. and then for your final voyage, you get to take a stroll through LA, with thousands bearing witness.. not a bad way to end such a career.
Well, it was not countless missions. (Unless you cannot count to 25) It was 25 missions over 19 years totaling 7,179 flight hours, 197,761,262 kilometres (122,883,151 miles) and 4,671 orbits around Earth.
@@CPR12345 remember people really don't know anything nowadays
@@theforest8882 I continuously have to remind myself of that 😬🙄🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
@@CPR12345well for a single space craft that is a lot
@@nonbigbrain9662 and? What’s your point? Should they have stopped flying Endeavour after 12 missions? Or 6? Maybe 1? Just so it would not have flown “a lot” “for a single space craft”? 🤷🏻♂️🙄🤦🏻♂️ They were built to be reusable, and probably could have kept flying if the money was spent to make them safer after the Columbia accident, which is the main reason why they were retired. Hopefully NASA will design and build something similar that is safer for space travel and exploration. But, unfortunately, everything has its risks, especially space exploration.
1:17 "Hey, you wanna come over and play video games?"
"Nah, I got a Space Shuttle at my house."
In parallel universe, one could say "So um, a Space shuttle crashed into my house"

Wkwkwk
I saw this movie at the LA science center. So emotional. This is pure LA and USA 🇺🇸.
im surprised no one tried to jump off of the balconies onto the wings
Hold my beer....
Wetter42 ok I will 🍺
I'd jump on that.
It was 7 years ago. Now they won't even dare to bring it out xD
This is what will happen if that happen
Someone: jump
Everybody: So you has chosen *20 YEAR S OF JAILS AND 100000$ PENALTY*
I saw it fly over when I was in 5th grade! All the classes went out and we ran as far as we could on the field to keep seeing it.
Most beautiful couple of days in Los Angeles. So much joy and excitement. And that ship IS gorgeous! I've loved EVERYTHING about NASA, the space programs, JPL since I was a very little girl.
And no day in Los Angeles, has been better.
Can’t believe this was 10 years ago. Time really goes fast
Magnificent tribute to the engineers, technicians, astronauts, scientists, and all the rest, who made possible our manned space exploration. A very moving video, beautifully done.
And while it's sad to see the end of an era, I am confident that one day we will send man off to space again, to learn even more about the universe we live in.
I never realized how big it was
Actually it's way smaller than I was expecting, watching it go down the streets.
@@the_minimalistic_adventure where you expecting it to be the size if the sea dragon or something lol
It’s still small, yet big if you ever visited the endeavor in person like me!
What a mix of emotion - for a child who was roused in the night to gaze at Sputnick, to observe in my twilight, as this gallant explorer is gently navigated around a tree.
To those who dreamed of her, built her, and sailed her ... you will always have the admiration of the world, and the thanks of your countrymen.
To those who gave their lives so that others might explore heaven's realm - a grateful nation will never forget.
Counting myself among a generation that witnessed miracles.
Wonderful sentiment, beautifully expressed.
1:52 just a casul space shuttle driving on the road
cater 6000 why are they putting the shuttle in the hanger
Yups. I'm in traffic with a space shuttle. No big deal. It's just another day.
Nothing to see here! Happens everyday lol!
@@smoocifilms6169 I know, right? I just watched this clip again, and it cracks me up how the space shuttle is just rolling along. XD
Xx Phhh xX because that is where the shuttle wilp be forever because it is retired
Fascinating how a spaceship bring so many people together and enjoy a usually once in a lifetime event
People walk down the street
Space shuttle: we don’t do that here
we had a great time working at there. And I miss everyone, we were a family and we'll never get that back again. At least we were part of history and we can be proud of that.
Looks like tiny ants carrying a giant dead insect back to the nest.
Yeaah

I remember I was in school (5th grade) at break/recess when the announcement came on the PA system that the shuttle was going to fly over our school. Everyone got up and scrambled and ran to the large field despite being told to walk and watched waiting for the Endeavor to fly over us. Which a few minuets later. It flew right over us. I could see the window of it from where I stood in the sea of students, faculty and teachers. Year or so later i went to the exhibit where it now rests.
I saw this at the California Science Center this past Mon while seeing it in person. ^^
Me to it was a moment I would never forget
Elizabeth’s I saw it while moving
I touched it at the space center
It should have ended up in Dayton Ohio. Not here
jacob stienecker Why?
1:18 just jump on there and maybe you could fly to the space too! :)
ye lol
dude watching it to hes friend hey dude i dare you too jump on you wil get to be the only person to ride on a space shuttle wing there only one small catch you wil be arrested
I love how the subtitle is only saying "you [music] [applause]"
What could that mean? 🤔
Amazing!
The space shuttle is just sitting in the hanger like “I’m a airplane too”
I remember the footage of it flying around on top of an airplane!
No, much cooler than an airplane.
imagine if one of the main lifting engines just suddenly fired there
Michael Dan Joe they aren’t fueled but ok
CohenDoesThings “imagine”
CohenDoesThings 🤦🏻♂️.... “imagine” is the keyword here...
My first thought when i saw the thumbnail lol
Michael Dan Joe oooooof
This is such a lovely montage. Beautiful, poetic, the music fits perfectly. Something about the contrast of a spaceship that is the culmination of the brightest of humanity - that can launch us to huge horizons unknown - being paraded through the city streets before the common man and woman for all to see. Beautiful. Bravo. Inspiring and uplifting! Makes me believe for a moment again in humanity’s better angels
Excellent, Mr. Bryan Chan
So proud of our spaceship that we parade it through the streets :)
No, they had to transfer it from the assembly building to the other building
Saw this go by my elementary school absolutely breathtaking
Never thought space shuttle is soo enormous....it is a 20th century jewel, we have given to future generations to come
I wonder if someone shacked the space shuttle and said: "That aint going nowhere".
I was on the top level of the Disneyland parking structure the day she flew over and at the California Science Center when she arrived. (It was anticipated that she would arrive that night around 8, then it was changed to 10.. then they said the next morning. So I spent the night in my car in the parking structure at the Science Center lol) It was such an amazing thing to watch and experience.
This came through 8 years ago.. and I got to go see it on my birthday. Amazing.
The one and only thing on my bucket list, when I was young, was attending a shuttle launch. Unfortunatly cancer didn't let me fulfill my dream. Thank god for TH-cam
That’s really unfortunate. I’m glad you’re ok now
Incredible photography by the Times staff!
I'll miss all the good times we had in Florida. Rest well, Endeavour.
Was I ever Impressed with the delivery of the space shuttle to a hangar. Could you imagine what it would have been like to hear a lot of people outside of your home, and this huge monster is in a narrow part of your street, slowly making its way past a tree so that it doesn’t get injured! Obviously, those driving it around town really know what they’re doing. So glad I got to see your video! Thank you!
This video is beautiful. It's strangly moving. I can't explain why.
About time a space craft actually gets its own recognition parade. The Apollo 11 Astronauts got parades like this for almost a year all over the world. Astronauts are jockeys for these horses. The horse deserves some lovin' every now and then.
im so glad i got to see this in person at the time
Glad I stayed up to witness that after getting off of work on a night shift. Got physically painful at one point trying to stay awake and a bit damp in the morning air, but it was worth it... Can't believe it's been *eight ( 8 )* years!
This transportation project was quite an *endeavour*
When it was on the plane at first it flew over my school :D
Recommendations have brought us together once again.
Wow! I didn’t know they actually took it to the streets. Very cool man. Wish I knew about it so I could’ve been there. Man, that would’ve been one hell of a sight to see.
1:28 i appreciate the way they pass the shuttle without even cutting the tree ♥ ♥
"Wtf is this traffic?"
Proceeds to find a space shuttle chillin' on the highway
Wow. That was absolutely awesome 👏🏻
This was marvelous!
It was wonderful Saw her in her temp home today and it still made me emotional. Sorry about the trees, but no other way to get her here.
Won't see anything like this in Georgia -_- every damn thing is in L.A.
LA sucks ass to live in
You can go to nearby Florida. Space Shuttle Atlantis is displayed in Kennedy Space Center since 2012.
ikichullo no it doesn’t it’s lit af literally 🔥
Seeing it up close was such an experience to see how they towed it. Made the 8hr delay so worth it.
Incredible that people are still watching this in 2020, myself included!!!!
This is too cool!
Awesome👌
Yes
I’ve seen Discovery at the Smithsonian, it’s quite awe inspiring to stand next to her. I should go pay Endeavor a visit.
What a beauty. Still remember this. Every one of them should have had a homecoming trip like this.
They more or less did!
Who’s here after NASA and Space X launched their spaceship with astronauts for the first time in 10 years?

Love this!! Amazing how they did this!!
awesome work !
So you are telling me, that shuttle Endeavour took longer to travel across all of Los Angeles to a museum than the Apollo 11 took to get to the moon?
It took a little less actually, but basically yeah
Great job thanks Los AngelesTimes
Great documentation of the entire process. What a great job! 😊
That ship going through that neighborhood in inglewood. Makes me wonder if any kid growing up in that poor neighborhood saw that ship and was inspired in some way.
Why’d they change the music on this video? The original track “Keeper of the Wind” was so much more fitting.
Copyright, probably.
i remember being a kid in school and everybody was talking about how the shuttle was going to come over our school and at lunch time it was about to come over and a hundred other kids and myself started running as the shuttle came over with two jets on its side it was the coolest thing
Thank you for sharing! Awesomeness!!!
POV: You’ve been recommended this 7 years later.
I remember when I was a kid, I saw this shuttle pass by Crenshaw mall, that thing was super huge.
Omg you made me feel hella old. Lol. I’m over here thinking this was like 4 year ago. Haha.
Cheers!
This is the feeling I want when I think of LA right now.
I think it's Venus. The morning star.
didn't know it was so big i imagined the shuttle a lot smaller
i mean u gotta think ab the amount of power they need
