During Enterprise’s time in service, two space shuttles were destroyed – Space
shuttle Challenger exploded shortly after launch in 1986, and Columbia broke
up upon re-entry into the Earth’s atmosphere in 2003. Thirteen astronauts
died in the tragedies.
Space shuttle Discovery was flown to Washington last April. Discovery is open
to the public at a headquarters of the National Air and Space Museum in
nearby Virginia.
Space shuttle Endeavour is now on view at the California Science Center in Los
Angeles, and space shuttle Atlantis is available at the Kennedy Space Center
in Orlando, Florida.
