Wow. I watched it on the NASA channel on TV. Those were some amazing pictures and audio. Jeez, they had cameras tracking the shuttle from multiple angles, even an onboard view from the shuttle itself looking at the Florida coastline to ultimately the runway itself as it touched down. Just amazing. Welcome home.

"comes down like a rock....seven times steeper than an airplane..."

Too bad it takes something to go wrong before we remember just how complex and difficult the entire process is.

Here's something for your desk today, Astronaut Morgan...
