They were just showing pictures of them hauling the space shuttle through LA so that's what it looked like to me.
#4: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Oct 15, 2012 [SPOILER]
"Who stole Aldège's Castle?
#5: Tom King (sgusa) on Oct 15, 2012
Good guesses. Some are on the right track...

Uh-oh! Someone's stealing the skyscrapers from downtown Aldegia.

Hmm, there's a movie called Stealing Las Vegas, and I think there's a New York New York casino.

The Muppets Take Manhattan?


I found the solve very hard with deep edge logic needed.

It's gotta be Apollo 15. The retired space shuttle they are hauling is the Endeavour whose name honored the command module of Apollo 15.

Ooh, I like your guess, Joe!

The space shuttle doesn't have so many windows. :)
