So, two weeks ago, I had the chance to see the Space Shuttle Enterprise sail up the Hudson on a barge, en route to its permanent home at the Inrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum. You can keep up with the shuttle exhibit here.
Here is the Enterprise sailing past the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.
A lovely fire boat led the way...
I really loved the crazy clouds this day. These photos don't quite capture the broodiness and ominous sky that made the event all the more riveting.
To the Intrepid!
And, here is some highly dramatic video... As I've confessed before, I'm terrible with video, hence the nonsensical panning across the harbor in the first few seconds. But you get the idea.
See more photos of the Enterprise here.

Goggla.....WOW! As good as it gets. Bobby.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Bobby - this was one of those once-in-a-lifetime and only-in-New-York experiences.
ReplyDeleteKeep up your always excellent work!
That's great stuff. Honestly, better than anything I noticed on television.
ReplyDeleteThanks, DM. At the time, I figured this was covered by so many other people, it wasn't worth posting. I'm glad I did!
ReplyDeleteVery cool photos and videos, I missed this in person, so it was fun to see it here!
