The city of Los Angeles has reached an agreement with the California Science Museum to remove more than 400 trees to make room for Space Shuttle Endeavour's Oct. 12 trek through the city. In turn, four newer and larger trees will be planted for each tree removed in some areas, while in other areas two new trees will be planted for each tree removed. The museum has promised to repair sidewalks, offer scholarships and job training in exchange for having the 400 trees removed.
