Discovery coming home

"After unprecedented repair work, state-of-the-art imaging and extensive engineering analysis, mission managers have cleared Discovery for re-entry.

Commander Eileen Collins and her STS-114 crewmates, who have been testing safety procedures and servicing the International Space Station, are set to land at NASA's Kennedy Space Center at 4:46 a.m. EDT Monday." -NASA.gov


4:46am. I think they could have planned that a little bit better. I'm just saying, I think the rocket scientists over at NASA need to stop worrying so much about gravitational pull and the rotation of the earth on its axis when planning landings and worry more about the marketing.
