Shuttles for sale: Less than 130 million miles, new paint

Shuttles for sale: Less than 130 million miles, new paint - CNN.com

In the market for a new ride? For a mere $28.8 million you can own one of NASA’s recently retired shuttles. The spacecrafts each have less than 130 million miles on them, and come with a crisp white paint job.

Of course, since one of these bad boys likely won’t fit in your garage, museums might have a better chance of nabbing one.

Even if you were ready to plunk down nearly $30 million, chances are your garage can't fit a space shuttle next to the lawn mower. But there are a few places willing to pay the price. And for the most part, they've got the space, too.

When the shuttle Atlantis touches down Wednesday morning (weather permitting), the orbiter will become the first of the three remaining shuttles to officially retire. By the end of the year, Discovery and Endeavour will follow.

The question is: Where will they retire to?
