Let's go to the universe. 

 

 

 

Alien visited California Science Center.

Looks like an octopus. 

 

 They have many water tanks. 

f:id:alientravel:20160930185657j:plain

Hello small fishes. 

 

A huge water turnnel! 

f:id:alientravel:20160930185724j:plain

It is like one in an aquarium. 

 

 

This is Mr. Mexican salamander. 

f:id:alientravel:20160930185543j:plain

Alien planned to visit here to see the space shuttle Endeavor.

Let's go!

 

 

It would be safe to buy a ticket online in advance.

Let's learn history of Endeavor first.  

f:id:alientravel:20160928221635j:plain

It is made in California.  

 

Tires. Huge! 

f:id:alientravel:20160928221544j:plain

Wow Alien can touch it.  

 

 

Touch! 

f:id:alientravel:20160930190643j:plain

Hard and smooth. 

 

 

This is a toilet for crews.  

f:id:alientravel:20160928221624j:plain

No gravity makes everything hard.  

 

 

 This is a model of an operation system.  

f:id:alientravel:20160928221649j:plain

Cool. 

 

 

 

And now, Alien can meet Endeavor! 

f:id:alientravel:20160928221725j:plain

Huuuuuuuge!

 

 

 

Thermal insulation plates are put everywhere. 

f:id:alientravel:20160928221834j:plain

Mr. curator said each plate costs $2000. 

 

 

Back. 

f:id:alientravel:20160930185152j:plain

How cool~ 

 

 

Alien learned history of space exploitation. 

f:id:alientravel:20160930185221j:plain

People keep trying, embracing successes and failures. 

 

 

 

 

 

Endeavour went back to its home California, after it completed 25 missions in 19 years.

Let's check their gift shop before leaving.  

f:id:alientravel:20160930185338j:plain

Somewhat scary. 

 

Am Alien look good with this? 

f:id:alientravel:20160930185325j:plain

Somewhat scary. 

 

 

 

 

Well, Alien's LA trip is now over.

Let's go to return the car. 

 

 

 

 

Wait, there is…

f:id:alientravel:20160928220426j:plain

Alien found the famous donuts sign. 

f:id:alientravel:20160928220501j:plain

Alien don't have much time. Let's drive-through. 

f:id:alientravel:20160928221312j:plain

Very popular place. 

 

 

Hello! Two donuts please~ 

f:id:alientravel:20160928221353j:plain

Nice smile. 

 

 

Alien returned the car and had a snack time at LA airport. 

f:id:alientravel:20160928221436j:plain

Very sweet and yum yum. 

The donuts didn't taste like outer space though.
