It's unclear how you'd even move the thing safely. The shuttle-carrier 747s are literal museum pieces now. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuttle_Carrier_Aircraft#Retir...

I guess they can disassemble/reassemble it or move it whole with huge flatbed trucks, but both risk damaging the vehicle.



They'd likely move it via barge; that's how Houston got their current Shuttle (replica) from Florida. Getting it to the Potomac would probably be the toughest bit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Shuttle_Independence#Spa...
