Produced by Jim Albritton | Hundreds of visitors and employees turned out at the John C. Stennis Space Center to bid farewell to the Space Shuttle Endeavour as it passed 1,500 feet overhead, atop a modified 747, headed for its new home at the California Science Center in Los Angeles. This final flight, which marks the end of NASA's shuttle program, also highlights the crucial role Stennis has held for more than 30 years.
