Why are they landing at Edwards? I know they don’t like doing that.

Landing weather in FLA was no-go. They wanted to bring it down today, so Edwards it is.

I remember watching the very first shuttle land at Edwards back in 1981. From the time it was first discernible to the naked eye, to the time it touched down was on the order of 1 minute or less, if I remember correctly. It really is in a nose dive right up until it lines up with the runway.

You're welcome, Ernest. Please ping if you hear the sonic boom. It might be flying overhead, though doubt we'll see anything.

Just out of curiosity, do you think they’ve got mics set up at Edwards so we can hear the booms on the feed?

We wanted some publicity for California.

It's all about lobbying
