STS-126 Crew and Lunar Rover to Join President-elect Inaugural Parade

President-elect Barack Obama and Vice President-elect Joe Biden's Inaugural Committee will have the NASA STS-126 Space Shuttle Endeavour and other agency officials. In addition to the Endeavor crew, the NASA contingent will include a small pressurized rover. That vehicle is one concept for a new generation of lunar rovers that astronauts will take with them when they return to the moon by 2020.

A new NASA float was suggested by NASA Watch :-)

The 56th Inaugural Parade for the 44th President will proceed down Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitol steps to the White House. It will follow the swearing-in ceremonies on Tuesday January 20, 2009.
