And we have touchdown, Houston....

The space shuttle Discovery is on the ground after a highly successful mission. Discovery's crew accomplished several objectives, including the all-important flight test of recent safety modifications and an EVA to repair a rail cart on the outside of the International Space Station. Next up: The shuttle Atlantis, on an ISS assembly mission that could launch as early as August 27. Hats off to the shuttle program and all of NASA.
