It's good that they got back okay.

OTOH, I would have liked to have heard the sonic boom. :D Darn Florida summer weather!

Saw on the news today that the next time Discovery goes into space (Assuming they sort out their problems) we'll have our first astronaut for a few years. (Michael Foal being the last if I remember right) :D
