Space Shuttle Discovery Gets Astronaut Sendoff at Smithsonian
Many astronauts who flew on the shuttle Discovery helped usher it into the Smithsonian Museum. Discovery, NASA's oldest and most traveled space shuttle, is now a relic.
www.space.comI don’t have live access to current news feeds right now. Here’s how you can quickly check the latest about the Space Shuttle Discovery and related disasters:
- Check major outlets’ space desks: NASA’s official site and major papers (e.g., Los Angeles Times, New York Times) often post timely updates on spaceflight incidents and investigations.
- Look for trusted live blogs or space news aggregators (Space.com, Ars Technica’s space section, BBC Science) with “Discovery” and “space shuttle” keywords.
- If you’re seeking historical context (e.g., Challenger, Columbia, Discovery retirements), I can summarize the key events and timelines.
Would you like me to pull together a concise, sourced recap of the major historical Space Shuttle disasters and where Discovery fits in, or would you prefer I search for the very latest headlines and summarize them with links?
