The speeded up video, taken by the Space Station crew, of the Shuttle
Discovery being manoeuvered by Eileen Collins through a 360 degree
spin, to allow the inspection of the thermal protection tiles on
Discovery's belly and other parts, is one of the most amazing sights
I've ever seen.
With our beautiful Earth in the background, it was such a breathtaking
scene.
