Could be Kennedy or Edwards; depends on weather, mainly crosswinds.

Wonder how to find a link to landing track? Some years ago I was lucky enough to get to see a mid-night landing across East Texas by Endeavor AND unlucky enough to see the breakup pieces track on the fateful re-entry of Columbia.

I am convinced this is a total waste of borrowed money. Sending school teachers on joy rides and going round and round for billions with no real worth is criminal. My opinion is shut nasa down and take that money and SHUT THE BORDERS DOWN!!!

Write NASA and tell them that you’d like your $56.67 refunded.

I believe the program itself should continue.... discovery is essential to America, as well as to mankind. But the program should have long passed into the Private domain.

And by all means get rid of that computer which relies so heavily on technology developed by and as a result of the space program.
