Watching the shuttle Enterprise do the fly-by's around NYC right now. So damn cool! I wish Matt was able to take today off so we can drive in and see it live but we'll settle for a trip to the Intrepid museum again in the summer so we can look at it in person. 
They're going to land it at Kennedy airport and then in June they'll bring it to the Intrepid by barge for display and it's forever home.
I think they have another one going to LA in September and one went someplace south the other day, all on permanent display.
If you never had an opportunity to check out one of the shuttles in person, I highly recommend you do if you are near an exhibit. It's really cool and so much bigger than a rocket (Apollo) capsule. I was able to tour one down at NASA when I was in Florida. We took a detour on the way home from Bike Week.
If anyone is in the Virginia / Cincoteague area, on the way to the island (Chincoteague) there is a NASA station there and you can sit in capsules and do all kinds of space stuff.

I have no idea what you're talking about so here's a bunny with a pancake on it's head
