    Final Flight for Endeavour

    By Skinnywater  |  Posted September 19, 2012  |  Florida
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     Skinnywater lives in Cocoa, Florida, and shot this photo of space shuttle Endeavour from a dock on the Indian River Wednesday morning. 'It's the last time that she'll ever be at her home base again. It strikes a chord of nostalgia in you because she's done so many flights from the space center. This is her home,' he said. Still, he added, 'when you think of it, she's an old bird. How many people own cars that are 25 years old or stereos that are 25 years old or computers that are 25 years old? She's old technology, she really is.'
    - dsashin, CNN iReport producer

    Endeavor leaves her home at KSC for the last time. This picture shows her flying over the Indian River upon which she has looked down numerous times. This time is the last.
