Houston, we have a space shuttle... replica. The mockup, which was known as "Explorer" for the 18 years it was displayed at the NASA Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida, arrived in Houston's Clear Lake, opposite Johnson Space Center, on Friday. Delivered by barge, the replica's docking launched "Shuttlebration," a public celebration, which will culminate Sunday with a one mile parade to Space Center Houston, where the walkthrough mockup will go on display.
