    Watching it on NASA TV now…oh boy

    I hope the next manned space system (whatever it will be) will carry on-board live streaming cameras during landing. NASA TV’s coverage of shuttle landings is a little… uninspiring.

    Whew!

    First time watching a shuttle land. Glad it was the last one. Momentous occasion.

    My favorite moment (apart from the safe landing) was the response from Atlantis’ commander when Mission Control was stumbling over the word “imagining”…
    His reply was something like “Easy for you to say!” Droll, very droll LOL!

    My family watched and I was weeping :0)
