There are some sights in this world that no photograph can truly capture.<\/p>\n

Think of the rolling ribbons of the aurora in the northern and southern skies, the depth and breadth of the Grand Canyon, or the sense of immersion when diving on the Great Barrier Reef. Astronauts will tell you that not even large-format cameras can truly capture the blackness of outer space or the majesty that is our planet as seen from orbit or beyond.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not every day that a new one of those sights debuts. But such will be the case on Friday, November 13, when the California Science Center in Los Angeles finally reveals the launch-pad-like display of the space shuttle Endeavor<\/em> inside the new Samuel Oschin Air and Space Center.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been more than 30 years since we first dreamed of putting a shuttle in the launch position in our air and space center, and it is better than we ever thought it was going to be,\u201d said Jeffrey Rudolph, president and CEO of the science center, in an interview with collectSPACE.com. \u201cI haven\u2019t had anybody walk in there yet who is disappointed, and more than that, who isn\u2019t excited and in awe.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is an incredible exhibit and incredible sight,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
