Visit to Space Center

Thomas and I were invited by Patrick Atkins (space center employee) to visit the Space Center yesterday, September 26th.

The space ship Endeavor was in the process of being repaired and here are some of the photos. It was exciting to view the space ship up close and to see all the intricate and complicated working of it.
