collectSPACE SpaceX Dragon capsule on display ahead of joining space shuttle L.A. exhibitWhat do you do when your star attraction — a retired space shuttle — is under wraps and out of view from the public for the next few years? If you are the California Science Center, you land another spacecraft. The Los Angeles museum and educational destination on Monday (June 24) announced the addition of a SpaceX Dragon capsule to its collection. The flown cargo vehicle will be displayed with NASA's space shuttle Endeavour in the science center's new Samuel Oschin Air and Space Center when that building is complete. Until then, the capsule can be viewed as part of a "Work in Progress" gallery, now open to the public. |

Some more photos of the "Work in Progress" gallery. First, SpaceX's three-time-flown Dragon cargo spacecraft:
Rocket Lab's Electron:
The space shuttle main engine is a better display than before. Nicely lit and you can walk all around it, which you couldn't do before when it was next to Endeavour.
