EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE, California (AP) — Atlantis and its seven astronauts took a cross-country detour and landed safely in the Mojave Desert Friday
I just woke up.
It’s a wonderful day here in Florida, close to Cape Canaveral: Sunny, no wind, and not a single cloud!
Had Mission Control waited another 24 hours with bringing Atlantis home, NASA would have saved 1.7 million bucks.
AND we would have experienced our beloved two ‘booms’.
On the other hand, we now get to see the shuttle return home on top of a Boeing 747, hopefully doing a low level flyby at Cocoa Beach again.
Always an amazing sight.
