Space shuttle Endeavour has landed in California, but not before being spotted in the skies above southern Arizona.
Endeavour left Florida Wednesday and made a layover in Houston. En route to California, it flew over Tucson, home of ex-Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. She's married to Mark Kelly, Endeavour's last commander.
Video from KGUN in Tucson showed the shuttle slowly making its way to its final destination in southern California.
The baby of the shuttle fleet touched down shortly after noon Thursday at Edwards Air Force Base, 100 miles north of Los Angeles.
