Endeavour
So today I got an amazing chance to see Endeavour piggybacking on a 747 (a really huge plane :P). I don't know if anyone else from VP saw it, but it was covering 'a lot' of northern California. It'll eventually end up at LAX (Los Angeles). My brother and I went off to watch it at Moffet Field. <span style="font-size:80">Just a note, I don't live near Moffet. ;p</span> Apparently the Air Force was actually allowing people to enter the base, but we'd gotten there around 9am and it was packed. I was still able to watch it as it flew over Moffet, but I wish I had either been able to watch it on the base or watch it pass the Golden Gate. (Would make for much more exciting photos, I would think!) In total we were there for nearly two hours. Endeavour didn't make it there until about 10:25 pacific, I believe. We stood around until nearly 11 hoping it'd come back around.<br><br>My brother took photos while I took video of it. He was kind enough to let me post one of his photos on here, just so long as I added a watermark. If anyone wants to see his picture at full size, I can give you the link to it in PM. The other two are just screencaptures of the video itself. (Yeah, I cheated!) :P <br><br><img src="http://i942.photobucket.com/albums/ad263/anabellemoone/shuttle_zpsf4bacab9.png"; alt="http://i942.photobucket.com/albums/ad263/anabellemoone/shuttle_zpsf4bacab9.png"; class="bb-image" /><br><img src="http://i942.photobucket.com/albums/ad263/anabellemoone/ScreenShot2012-09-21at121644PM_zps68f617b4.png"; alt="http://i942.photobucket.com/albums/ad263/anabellemoone/ScreenShot2012-09-21at121644PM_zps68f617b4.png"; class="bb-image" /><br><img src="http://i942.photobucket.com/albums/ad263/anabellemoone/ScreenShot2012-09-21at121613PM_zpsa9d18ceb.png"; alt="http://i942.photobucket.com/albums/ad263/anabellemoone/ScreenShot2012-09-21at121613PM_zpsa9d18ceb.png"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>Now the video is only 36 seconds long, but I would recommend not having volume at full, as people did get loud when they saw it. XD Unfortunately photobucket grossly distorts the quality of the video.
