Welcome Home Discovery!

The crew of the Discovery is back on Earth , completing a mission that took them 5.3 million statute miles in just shy of 13 days.

This was the 117th mission of the space shuttle fleet, Discovery's 33rd mission.

The next mission, STS-117, is expected no earlier than March.

For more on the Space shuttle's mission and the Space Shuttle, NASA, and space in general (yes including some on UFOs), see my new blog Space: News and Information on Space Exploration.

WELCOME HOME
to the crew of the Discovery and
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
