Battleship Texas moving: Live view of historic ship heading to Galveston

The Battleship Texas is making its way to Galveston from the San Jacinto battleground site in La Porte for repairs.
In 2019, state lawmakers approved the repairs, but with the condition it finds a new home once repairs are complete. Where it’ll end up permanently is still undecided.
The USS Texas hasn't been moved since 1988 when it also underwent repairs in Galveston. More: https://www.khou.com/article/news/local/battleship-texas-headed-to-galveston/285-b1759333-e7e4-4d6b-89cd-983bf8283165
