If you were as gaga as we were over the final voyage of the Starship Space Shuttle Enterprise yesterday, then enjoy the videos below, which document the Enterprise as it circled around the city several times before finally landing at JFK. Highlights include one taken from the roof of St. George Tower, one taken in a plane on the runway at JFK, and Captain Kirk's shuttle ride over to it. Watch below—it'll make you feel like a kid again. more ›

Yesterday was the final voyage for the Starship Space Shuttle Enterprise. After boldly flying in circles around the city for much of Friday morning to the delight of almost everyone in NYC, the plane was decommissioned by Starfleet brought to JFK airport where it was greeted by reporters and adorable space-loving children. more ›

Today has been all about the Space Shuttle Enterprise—we've been eagerly following as it has flown all around NYC (looping several times). And now, it's finally landed at JFK airport—and our photographer Katie Sokoler is on hand for it. more ›

This morning the entire city looked up as the Space Shuttle Enterprise flew over it, and then landed at JFK. Now let's take a look back at this amazing shot of the same shuttle flying over Manhattan on June 10th, 1983. This was taken on a return flight from a world tour, where it was even on display at the Paris Air Show. On that day in 1983, the NY Times wrote: more ›

[UPDATE: We haves photographs now!] Last April, after a lot of lobbying, New York City was granted one of NASA's retired Space Shuttles. Sure, it's the shuttle that performed test flights in the atmosphere and never actually orbited space, but it's our shuttle. Today the Enterprise will finally come (to its new) home—flying over Hudson River, the Statue of Liberty and the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum. (The arrival was already delayed once due to unfavorable weather.) more ›

[UPDATE: The latest word is that NASA has changed the—still tentative—date to this Friday morning. Updates to come as they confirm.] Yesterday the Space Shuttle Enterprise was scheduled to arrive in New York City (finally—it's been over a year since the announcement), but weather postponed its trip. Now NASA has selected tomorrow (Wednesday) morning for its fly-over and landing at JFK airport. The date is still tentative, but weather-permitting you can expect the Shuttle to be doing a low fly-over between 9:30 and 11 a.m., before landing at the airport. Following that, the Enterprise will be "demated" from the 747 and placed on a barge that will be tugged up the Hudson River to its new home at the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum in June. more ›

All of our fighting for a space shuttle paid off in April when NASA granted us the Enterprise, but now what do we do with it? On Friday, the senior VP at the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum, Matt Woods, spoke at a public forum asking a panel of economic development planners "to make the Enterprise building a priority for state assistance." You see, now we need about $85 million to finance a structure in which to house the massive shuttle (the 75,000-square-foot building would also house laboratories, a retail space and a rooftop cafe). more ›

As America's space vehicles are launched into retirement, and the Intrepid Sea Air & Space Museum anticipates its very own shuttle, the Enterprise, the press is busy kicking its tires... or at least reflecting back on the glory days. For the shuttle Enterprise, there really aren't that many exciting stories (except that time the cast of Star Trek came to visit) because it never orbited space. However, this week the NY Post had astronaut Richard Truly pen a thoughtful look back at the Enterprise's days with NASA. more ›

Yesterday NASA announced that New York City would be receiving one of the retired space shuttles. Hurrah! Or not. Seems not everyone is happy that we got the broken one. One Daily News columnist says, "Unbelievable... the best Sens. Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand could get us was a prototype. What's worse is that L.A. is getting a real one: The Endeavour. Where are they gonna put it, Disneyland?" Good point, but also: calm down lady. Tantrums are for children who want sugary cereal, not grown adults. Plus, does it really matter? more ›

As the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum and New Yorkers cheered over getting the NASA shuttle Enterprise, there were some unhappy campers—specifically ones in Texas. NASA also announced the shuttle Endeavor will go to LA's California Science Center, the Discovery will go to the Smithsonian and the Atlantis will go to Cape Canaveral, Florida. Texas Congressman John Culberson (R) said, "It is sad and unfortunate that politics played such an obvious role in the placement of theses retiring Orbiters. The thought of an Orbiter not coming home to rest at Space Center Houston is truly tragic. It is analogous to Detroit without a Model-T, or Florence without a da Vinci." more ›

While NASA still hasn't made an official announcement, sources say that the Shuttle Enterprise will be landing in New York City! It's final trip will have it landing on the deck of the Intrepid (okay, so it will probably be towed there), where later today they'll be screening the official announcement on a 40-foot wall. more ›
