Space Shuttle Landing

The space shuttle is due to land about now. No doubt it will be on NASA TV. I only wish I was able to watch from where I am but alas my internet connection won't allow it.

Comments: Space Shuttle Landing

NASA's landing blog (via Tom) says that Discovery has now finally touched down and come to a stop after more than 5 million miles!

Hmmm I wonder what the flight path was? Usually I can hear the double sonic boom and it rattles the windows. I was dead asleep this morning so maybe I just missed it.
