我要评论What do you do when faced with a 15-storey space shuttle fuel tank winding its way slowly through your neighbourhood? Take a selfie.
Weighing more than 65,000 pounds and with a length of nearly 154 feet, the external fuel tank, ET-94, took a journey through the streets of Los Angeles Saturday from Marina del Rey to its new home, the California Science Center.

Credit: APThe last flight external tank of its kind, ET-94 will join the Endeavour space shuttle at the Center. It's an example of the fuel tanks that were used during liftoff in the era of the Columbia shuttle disaster. After being discarded, the tanks would burn up in the atmosphere.
Although it never went to space, ET-94 has been on a long journey. According to the California Science Center, the tank has taken a 4,400 nautical mile journey from New Orleans, through the Panama Canal, and now to California.
Its arrival set off a selfie storm. And no wonder. Look at this humongous orange thing.
