Wow!
Early congrats to all, but a great mission! Now let's see her (hi Chris) land safely!
Heads up to those of us in southern Ontario and the surrounding area... we are about 15-20 minutes from a nice-looking pass. They are gonna go right overhead. Might not be the last chance to catch Discovery in flight, but it will be the best. ~18:55-19:00 EST.Seems the weather gods are cooperating around much of the world tonight.

And over Rochester, NY. Rare clear skies. Dragged the wife and kids outside. Next view of Discovery will be in Washington.
