It was a mighty fine house-shaking double-boom here in Camarillo. We were expecting it while watching fuzzy televised real-time images of the Shuttle approach. We wished we could have made the trip to Edwards to see the landing but there wasn't enough advance notice.
It was a skyward double-header today with the lovely conjunction of Venus, Jupiter and the crescent moon just after sunset. What a gorgeous display, with no clouds to mar it here!

I wondered what that was...

I watched the Shuttle land at Edwards in November 1985, the next launch was the ill fated Challenger. The double booms were impressive as was the landing.

Boom-boom in Glendale, it caused the dogs in the kennel next door to go nuts.
I was in Tarzana last time the Shuttle landed at Edwards, and the booms set off car alarms in the neighborhood.
