Endeavour leaves Houston for California museum

HOUSTON (CNN) -  Space shuttle Endeavour has departed Houston on its trek west to retirement in a Los Angeles museum.

The shuttle, atop a modified jumbo jet, left Thursday morning after a one-day stop at the home of NASA's Mission Control. It took off Wednesday from its old home at Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

Endeavour flew 25 missions covering nearly 123-million-miles. It will be put on display at the California Science Center in late October.
