PHOTOS: Space Shuttle Enterprise Sails to Intrepid Museum

Space Shuttle Enterprise finished the last leg of its trip to a New York City museum.

Photographer Willy Thompson, a Teaneck firefighter, captured images of the Space Shuttle Enterprise's trip by barge from Jersey City to the Intrepid Museum. 

The shuttle sailed by New York City landmarks Wednesday, including the World Trade Center site and the Statue of Liberty. Boats from the New York City Police Department, Fire Department and a New York Water Taxi followed the shuttle on its historic trip. 

Scores of spectators from across the area lined the Hudson River waterfront to catch a glimpse of the shuttle.
