747 Piggyback — Brady Haran

An enduring image from my childhood (as a space obsessed kid) was the Space Shuttle being piggybacked on the back of a 747.

So what a thrill to go inside the now retired Shuttle Carrier Aircraft during a recent visit to Houston.

Thanks to everyone at Nasa and my mate Destin for being cameraman!
