CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – At NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, a twin set of space shuttle solid rocket boosters are being transported by truck to California. The solid rocket boosters, or SRBs, will be displayed at the California Science Center in Los Angeles. The 149-foot SRBs together provided six million pounds of thrust. The work is part of Transition and Retirement of the space shuttle. For more information, visit http://www.nasa.gov/transition Photo credit: NASA/ Dimitri Gerondidakis
