Space Shuttle Enterprise takes a step closer to new home

In this photo provided by NASA, space shuttle Enterprise hangs from a sling after being demated from the NASA 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft at John F. Kennedy International Airport in the Queens borough of New York, Sunday, May 13, 2012. Enterprise will be placed on a barge that will move by tugboat up the Hudson River to the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in June. The shuttle will be lifted by crane and placed on the flight deck of the Intrepid, where it will be on exhibit to the public starting this summer in a temporary climate-controlled pavilion.
