#22Does anyone know if Endeavour has real SSMEs attached? I understand that many museum SSMEs were cannibalized for the SLS.

#23I've seen all the Space Shuttles in their retirement. It took me 10 years to get to them all. But I saw Endeavor when it was still just on the ground (like Discovery).

They had it on display, about 10 feet off the ground (I forget how it was supported). But it was an amazing piece of machinery to be in the presence of, to be so close. They have the last boosters and last external fuel tank for this exhibit, parts I believe were origin…
There's a series of platforms where you can see it from progressively higher vantage points.
