1. Reunion with the Shuttle

I feel fortunate to have sketched the Space Shuttle both before and after its move California Science Center. When I learned that ET-94, the only remaining Space Shuttle fuel tank, is coming to Los Angels to be displayed together with the Shuttle, I had to sketch it. On my bike ride home one day, I rode by the ET-94 docked in Fisherman's Village in Marina del Rey. While it is narrower than the Shuttle, the tank was still very massive. A truck that will haul it on its final journey looks tiny in comparison.

I hope to sketch both the Shuttle and the tank when a new exhibit is constructed to show them together in a few years' time.
