For those who are following...

Discovery (STS-114)is safe on the ground. I watched the landing on TV (I'd have gone over to KSC but I didn't think they would land the shuttle there this morning)

(Space coverage...one non-sucky thing about Florida.)

We were. Thanks for keeping us updated.

Toni and I watched on CSPAN-2 before getting out of bed.

Thanks. I missed it on my way into work this morning.

One of the things I've always liked about DC is NASA-TV on the cable systems. That and CSPAN radio. :-)

yeah, they announced it on NPR on my way into work. i'm glad they're down safe.

Yep - watched it live on NASA TV. I'm still amused that when the astronauts leave the orbiter, they walk onto a mobile lounge -- just like at Dulles.

Oh, and I live there, for now anyway.

It is indeed and watching it take off or land for real (not on TV) is even cooler.
