Since the pandemic, it seems more and more people are hiking the Adirondacks. There are cars parked on the sides of roads and a ton of foot traffic. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation has teamed up with Essex County, and the Town of Keene to run a new shuttle system that will take hikers to the base of the Adirondack High Peaks.
New Yorkers who looked up into the sky on Friday were treated to something simply amazing. The Space Shuttle Enterprise rocketed past such iconic New York City landmarks as the Statue of Liberty and One World Trade Center before coming in for a landing at JFK airport. Luckily, photographers caught the close encounter.
After more than 20 years in the NASA space program the space shuttle Discovery descended from space for the final time yesterday and touched down at Cape Canaveral, FL for the last time.
Talk about having a great view! Some passengers on a flight from Orlando got a great view of last weeks launch of the Space Shuttle Discovery blasting off. One lucky person was even lucky enough to get the whole thing on tape.
