The
Space Shuttle Discovery, having flown nearly 150 million miles in
space, has entered its retirement home, the Smithsonian National Air and
Space Museum, Washington D.C.
Discovery entered the museum on April 19, 2012.
The shuttle left the Kennedy Space Center on April 17, flown atop a modified Boeing 747 aeroplane known as the Shuttle Carrier Aircraft. Having landed at Washington Dulles Interational Airport the orbiter was transferred to the Udvar-Hazy Center, part of the National Air and Space Museum located a few miles south of the airport.
Discovery completed 39 missions and spent 365 days in space, travelling 148,221,675 miles and orbiting the Earth 5,830 times. Its last mission, STS-133, took place in March 2011.

Die Discovery hat Geschichte geschrieben: Nach der Challenger-Katastrophe 1986 war sie die erste US-Raumfähre, die wieder ins All flog. Sie war es auch, die das Hubble-Teleskop ins All brachte und als erste US-Raumfähre an die russische Raumstation Mir andockte. Auch nach der Zerstörung der Columbia, die 2003 beim Wiedereintritt explodierte und sieben Astronauten in den Tod riss, war sie diejenige, mit der die bemannte Raumfahrt wieder aufgenommen wurde.
