LOS ANGELES (AP) — Space shuttle Endeavour is soaring over Los Angeles after wowing crowds in Northern California with low flyovers.
Strapped to the back of a 747 jet, the shuttle looped over landmarks, including downtown’s venerable City Hall and the Walt Disney Concert Hall as onlookers on pedestrian bridges and buildings ohhhed and ahhhhed with excitement and snapped photos.

Afterward it was set to land at the Los Angeles International Airport for an arrival ceremony.
The baby of the shuttle fleet, this is the last time it will be in the air. Endeavour will spend several weeks at an airport hangar before being towed 12 miles through city streets to the California Science Center near downtown, where it will go on permanent display.
