Technically, the shuttle
could launch into orbit , circle the Earth a couple times, then land at LAX (Ignoring the massive waste of rocket fuel and money that would be). But the Shuttles have already been gutted, and can never fly on their own again.
Each shuttle must take a "piggy back" ride on one of NASA's specially modified 747 aircraft, just like it did after landing in California on some missions.
