    Shuttle Carrier Aircraft and Space Shuttle Discovery over Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Daytona Beach

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     KennethNg, an undergraduate student at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, shot this picture earlier today. 'This is the final flight of a long going space program that USA was so dedicated to,' he says. 'I viewed the last STS 133 Discovery flight from the Kennedy Space Center last February. It's a bittersweet moment to see it fly overhead one final time.' He says it is debatable whether the space shuttle program should be continued, but believes it is time to develop the next generation of spacecraft to take humans to the new frontier.
    - ssesha, CNN iReport producer

    The final flight of the most well known space shuttle in USA's space program. I viewed the last STS 133 Space Shuttle Discovery flight from the Kennedy Space Center Causeway last February. It's a bitter sweet moment to see it fly overhead one final time. I can't wait to see it in the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center.
