Space Shuttle Independence, seen here mounted on Shuttle Carrier Aircraft N905NA, is not a real Shuttle, but a very accurate full-scale replica. It was constructed in the early 1990s and placed on display at the Kennedy Space Center in 1993, then named "Explorer". In late May 2012 it was transported by barge to Houston, where it arrived on June 1st. Explorer was placed on display at the Space Center Houston on poles, and in October 2013 it was renamed "Independence". On 14 August 2014 the replica Shuttle was placed on top of Shuttle Carrier Aircraft N905NA, which had arrived at the Space Center Houston in late April 2014.

Endeavour (OV-105) was the fifth and final Shuttle built. It embarked on its first mission, STS-49, in May 1992 and its 25th and final mission, STS-134, in May 2011. NASA chose, on cost grounds, to build much of Endeavour from spare parts rather than refitting the Space Shuttle Enterprise. After more than twenty organizations submitted proposals to NASA for the display of an orbiter, NASA announced that Endeavour would go to the California Science Center in Los Angeles. The exhibit was opened on October 30, 2012, at the temporary Samuel Oschin Space Shuttle Endeavour Display Pavilion.

A rare sight to see two Space Shuttles nose to nose. The occasion is the ceremony at the Smithsonian Udvar-Hazy museum at IAD to exchange the museum's Enterprise, which never flew in space, for the OV-103 Discovery which flew more missions than any other Shuttle. It's interesting to compare the pristine appearance of the Enterprise to the post re-entry wear on the Discovery.

On display at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex. Atlantis was the fourth operational Shuttle to be built, flying its maiden flight in Oct. 1985. It flew a total of 33 missions, including the final mission of the Space Shuttle program in July 2011. A look inside the payload bay shows the rear pressure bulkhead, external airlock, the Canadarm robotic arm and the electrically deployed payload bay doors.

On display at Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, National Air and Space Museum. Named after a sailing ship that had pioneered scientific research, Discovery flew its first mission in 1984 and last in 2011 for a total of 39 spaceflights, more than any other Space Shuttle or spacecraft. It spent 365 days in space and clocked more than 238 million km. Reinforced carbon-carbon on the nose cone differs in color with the tessellation of 30,757 silica tiles forming the heat shield.
