I was going to stand outside about 1-1/2 hours ago and watch for the shuttle and the ISS, but heavy rainclouds spoiled everything.

With the economic disaster resulting from Obama I’m starting to doubt I’ll see another American manned launch in my lifetime after the final shuttle flight.

I saw the first launch, and I'll see the last landing of the shuttle fleet.
Damn, this country needs some direction again.
To: KevinDavis
It’s flying due north of me right now (though only about 10 degrees elevation), and will be back by in 90 minutes for a straight overhead pass, disappearing into shadow when it’s just about straight up. The ISS is about 2 minutes behind it. The sky is clear and I’ve got my alarm set.

Well this is final live thread of the Space Shuttle Discovery.
I'm going to miss seeing those birds..You and me both. I worked on the STS contracts from 1979 thru 1996.

No doubt. The cloudy weather we’ve had didn’t allow for flyover sightings either. Totally bites.

Can an expert (ie, somebody who knows what they are talking about) tell me what time this will start to get ‘exciting’.
The reason I ask is I’m a teacher in a boarding school in Australia and I’ve agreed to wake up boys to watch the landing and while I want them to get a good show, it is going to be the middle of a school night here and we can’t have them awake any longer than we have to. It’s the first time we’ve had access to NASA TV readily available to us.
I’d also love to get some sleep myself, but that’s less important. :)

Space Shuttle Discovery's first crew.
And her last crew.
In between the two were 37 others. 185 people flew aboard Discovery either launched only, landed only, or launched and landed. She is and was a great spacecraft.

And the US manned space program comes to an end. The future belongs to China, India, etc., as the US will be content to sit and gaze at it`s navel.

De-orbit burn complete: Discovery is under way to land at the Kennedy Space Center.
