On Wednesday, September 19th, the shuttle Endeavor flew over our school. The kids weren't here, but some of the teachers got to see it fly over Clear Creek High School. Although it was a wonderful gesture, I have to agree with the city of Houston that it was bittersweet. Many of our students are from NASA families whose parents have worked on the shuttle program. We are certainly thankful to Florida's space center for giving us the mock up shuttle though. One teacher said students will be able to tour the mock up while the other shuttles won't be touchable. Ah well, it was still an exciting day to see the Endeavor on it's last journey. I look forward to seeing what's next in the space program.
