The Space Shuttle Enterprise made her final journey (actually, this is only a temporary spot for the shuttle, until a more permanent exhibit facility at the museum is built) today, up the Hudson River to the Intrepid Museum, where the public will be able to view it starting July 19th. Currently you can see the shuttle getting lifted by a crane onto the flight deck via their livecam... though it's a pretty slow, and not very exciting, process. You can also follow along that process via the museum's Twitter account, where they're posting updates and photos.

Click through for a look at the shuttle's watery journey from earlier today, and here's some video:
