Does anyone here know what is the temperature of the re-entry?

I’m not sure of the temperature, but I know that they’re going very very fast.

That picture doesn't make sense. 18 times speed of light? How did that happen?

I've always wondered why the Shuttle didn't have headlights....If they turned on the headlights, they'd crash into the light beams.....

Yeah, but they're not going THAT fast (3.348 million miles per second)! How about 18 times the speed of my ex-wife in school zones.
