People flock to see Shuttle Carrier Aircraft’s trip
People gathered on the side of state Highway 3 on Monday night to see sections of the eight-story Boeing 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft inch their way toward Space Center Houston.
In between intersections, bystanders and members of the work crew were taking selfies and FaceTiming with their smartphones and iPads as they waited for power lines to be disassembled so the massive aircraft could advance down the street.
Laura Larkin, whose father used to be the director of Johnson Space Center, brought her 7-year-old twin daughters Abigail and Anna to see the Shuttle Carrier Aircraft.
Anna really likes space, especially planets.
Its going to be really cool, she said. I wanted to come see it.
This isnt the first time the family has seen the aircraft. Three years ago, they got to go inside the plane when it came to Ellington Field.
Were really happy and excited its going to be here, Laura Larkin said. I think itll be really fun for the kids.
