Shuttle Pathfinder

The Pathfinder is a mock-up of the shuttle that was built for testing the transportation mechanisms at Marshall Space Flight Center and Cape Canaveral before the actual shuttle arrived. It was upgraded to look like an actual shuttle in the 1980s for a Japanese space shuttle exhibtion. Three of the engines are real shuttle engines.
