To ya All If the Discovery has good windshield wipers,and NASA don't
mind a low cloud cover than at 5pm the Cape might be its best bet. I can
see it going around for another day too. You don't put wings on
rockets. Wings need airports. The Apollo astronauts could land in the
gulf,and be picked up in minutes. I like that. Bert



And don't forget, the Shuttle's clock stops at the end of the year!

Double-A I heard the "boom" but was raining to hard to take any
picture. however it showed that the rain stopped over the cape(50 miles
from me) and that was mother natures Christmas present to those brave
astronauts. Today sitting on my back porch in my shorts its again
in the 80s and no rain. go figure bert

Ah, she landed, in one piece even!

Sounds like the temperature there is about the same all year, Bert.
Does it ever get much above the 80's in the summer?

Double-A Summer afternoon temp 93 F and 87 when raining. Never seems to
hit 95F very often. Last night the weather was 70. That is very warm
for night and early morning temperatures. *8os again today and
overcast. Lots of deadly car crashes on I-4. Bert
