When the time came to take #NASA’s Space #Shuttle #Discovery to the Smithsonian near Washington, the Shuttle Carrier #Aircraft was employed, as it usually was when the #SpaceShuttle needed to move.
This required the #Orbiter to be moved inside a truss-work structured called the Mate-Demate #Device, lifted up by cranes, and the #Boeing 747 Shuttle Carrier Airfcraft moved underneath for the Shuttle to be secured for transport.
An aerodynamic tail cone makes the #SCA easier to control.
The #MDD is next to the Shuttle Landing Facility.

A photograph of Space Shuttle Orbiter Discovery. It is a plane-like glider with a white top and black heat-shield bottom. It is being lifted up inside a metal truss-work structure called the Mate-Demate Device. A Boeing 747 airplane has been moved inside the structure under the Shuttle, allowing Discovery to be mounted on the Shuttle Carrier Aircraft.

This is how the #SpaceShuttle landed after being in #Space (#4K #Upscaling)

After four days of fun, it’s done. Here it is, all 2,354 pieces, in their full glory. #LEGO #SpaceShuttleDiscovery #HubbleSpaceTelecsope

Lego Discovery with its cargo bay open and the Hubble Space Telescope attached to the robotic arm.

The main engines of a Lego space shuttle

Now back to the #SpaceShuttleDiscovery #LEGO build (day 3). Looks like we’re in the home stretch, probably the penultimate day. Again, I had a 4yo helper. She’s getting really good.

Lego build showing just the wings and engines of a space shuttle.

3yo hands adding LEGO to the wings engine block of the space shuttle.

Lego shuttle’s cargo bay with doors open. Still missing the forward cabin.

Day 2 of the #SpaceShuttleDiscovery build. Last time I did a big build, 4yo was 3. So, it’s fun to see her little fingers able to do more of the work. She wants to be an astronaut. So she really likes it when I work on spaceships.

A table with a bunch of lego bags set on it

4yo little fingers snapping LEGO parts together.

2,354 pieces! They get me. They really get me. :) Looks like I know what I’ll be doing for the next little while. #LEGO #NASA #HubbleSpaceTelecsope #SpaceShuttleDiscovery
