I actually got to see the carrier with the shuttle flying over my house a few years ago! It took me a few minutes to figure out just what it was. At first I thought it was some kind of private jet with an extra-large tail fin.

It's a good way to transport it back to it's primary launch area, in Florida. The space shuttle cannot fly under it's own power. There are places all over the world certified to accept space shuttle landings, and there is only one place for it to land. They land in Florida right next to the launch area most of the time, but the shuttle lands semi-frequently at Edwards AFB (shown here) and has even landed in New mexico.
