It wasn't Ryan Gosling or Channing Tatum or Amanda Bynes. It was the space shuttle Endeavor. The shuttle was taking it's last flight to end up at the California Science Center to be on exhibit. But it's not everyday that a space shuttle is riding on the back of a ginormous jet with two small jets flanking it at only about 1500 feet. It made a bunch of loops around the city. People were camping out at the Griffith Observatory just to get a glimpse. But being in Hollywood on the 7th floor of a building has its privileges. We got to see the shuttle go by five times and once it was right over our building. So close you could hear the roar of the engines clearly.
Needless to say, it was hard to concentrate on work again after that.
It was hard to take good pictures, but here are a few that I snapped:
 |
| From when it went over Universal Studios |
 |
| On its way back over our area |
 |
| As it's heading up to circle the Hollywood Sign (covered by trees on the left) |

You can't see it but this was the shot after it had flown over our building.
