That could be misread too though depending on when you're reading it and when you think the article was written in relation to the events. If it's a quick article right after it reads like the original verbiage but if you think it

Yeah it's impractical to have a big aviation museum in a downtown, the planes just take up so much space. Another really good one is the Air Force museum in Dayton Ohio.

It would do it but you had to explicitly type a double dash -- iirc without spaces between the preceding and following word for Word to create an em-dash instead of an en-dash; ie this--is an em dash and this -- is and en dash. (at least in

Farther if you're looking at public transit travel times. It's ~90-120 minutes by the train-bus combo you have to take for Udvar and 120-180 for the bus only service (no weekend service afaik) for SC Houston. The one upside may be

Yeah the only real plus I could see to putting it outside would be if you made it part of a fully assembled set with the boosters and fuel tanks but then you couldn't see all the little details that I personally love from seeing it up

The rockets are mostly painted metal while the shuttle's white surface is mostly a woven thermal protection blanket material. Significantly different materials more likely to be damaged in the elements.

If you're considering it that puts yet another reason to NOT move the shuttle, the situation in Houston isn't better. For Udvar Hazy you can get there purely on public transport 7 days a week unlike in Houston, there's only a
