Welcome Home, STS-122 (Atlantis)
Still making it look too damned easy (a compliment) — Space Shuttle Atlantis, mission STS-122 — welcome home!
I hope the next generation space vehicle and the United States’ “Vision for Space Exploration,” provides something iconic, because it seems profoundly sad to me that Sara’s generation might be relegated to watching Apollo-era capsules splashdown instead of Heads Up Display fed live from the Space Shuttle orbiter on its landing approach, and dual sonic booms heralding (to steal the NASA commentators nice choice of words) her return from orbit.
