The Toyota Tundra didn't pull Endeavour 12 miles, it pulled it less than 1/4 of a mile over a bridge.
Space Shuttle Enterprise is in New York, Space Shuttle Discovery is in Virginia, Space Shuttle Atlantis is in Florida, and Space Shuttle Endeavour is in California.
The first space shuttle was built primarily in Palmdale, California at Rockwell's facility.
The space shuttle travels in low earth orbit (LEO), from 120 to 380 miles in space.
I believe that when a space shuttle is traveling at its fastest it goes about 17,321 miles per hour.
The Space Shuttle typically orbited the Earth at an altitude of about 150 to 400 miles (240 to 640 kilometers).
Space Shuttle Endeavour, the youngest shuttle in the fleet. It was transferred to the California Science Center.

It doesn't. The space shuttle never gets significantly closer to the Moon than its launching pad does (the space shuttle generally operates at a few hundred miles altitude, tops; the Moon is 240,000 miles away).
