NASA is retiring its Space Shuttle fleet and has announced that it will make three space shuttles - Discovery, Endeavor and Atlantis - available to different institutions throughout the United States.

New York City would make an ideal home for one of these retiring shuttles. The Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum has applied to NASA for consideration to bring the shuttle to New York City's west side. The shuttle would be prominently displayed alongside of The USS Intrepid and the Growler Submarine at Manhattan's Pier 86.

Please visit www.shuttle2nyc.com to sign the petition to NASA to help bring a space shuttle to NYC and to the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum.
