After a clandestine meeting in Washington, they travel to Houston. Pasadena is the site of the 1977 news footage, Cape Canaveral the site of the shuttle's launch, and Albuquerque the place the shuttle lands.

A strange face appears out of the fog. Michelle lets go of the steering wheel and covers her face.
