 May  not ever have made a trip into space, but Enterprise is sill making history. NASA retire its space shuttle fleet last year, the four vehicles are hitting the different museums around the country,and Enterprise is the first space shuttle to land on a aircraft career. The vehicle's new home will be on board the I. space museum and in order to get there, Enterprise has to travel on a barge 1 down the Hudson river. It didn't make the trip alone, you can make out the shuttle in the middle of the floating convoy 2, and check out that  island that Enterprise just passed by, that is the statue of Liberty, welcoming the shuttle to New York city.//outdoor 3D-movie, but they are using special glasses to check out something we reported on earlier this week, it's an event that truly wants a lifetime, because it won't happen again for more than a century, we are talking about the transit 3 of Venus. The giant glowing thing is the sun and little black dot passing infront of it is Venus. Remember Venus and earth are pretty close to each other and size, so this definitely gives you some perspective on just how big the sun is. One person who watch the transit in Canifornia said it was like watching grass grow, But he added, quote ,if you were told the grass only grow every hundred years you'd probably want to watch it. We're gonna stick with the space theme for our next report from R., it's about a student in Egypt and his science project on spiders. He internet contest recently that ask young people to come up with the experiments. That could be run in orbit. Thanks to his idea, the international space station will be getting a visit from some eight-leg travelers.
