Do you ever wonder how spacecraft gets around when not roaring into the heavens? The Super Guppy! The Super Guppy, which is based at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, has a cargo compartment that is 25 feet tall, 25 feet wide and 111 feet long and can carry more than 26 tons. The aircraft has unique hinged nose that can open more than 200 degrees, allowing large pieces of cargo to be loaded and unloaded from the front -- a perfect ride for the
