Discovery Heading Home

Kailash Nadh wrote to mention an ABC News article discussing Discovery's departure from the space station, heading for Terra Firma. From the article: "Once undocked, Discovery looped around the space station for the first full photographic survey of the orbiting outpost since the last shuttle visit in late 2002, and then sped away into the blackness. Discovery's astronauts awoke Saturday evening for a day of storing away equipment for their upcoming return. They also planned to take down an antenna, which they have used to transmit video images of the mission. "

Seeing as the Russians have been keeping people on the space station for two years, and China are planning a manned mission in October, I highly doubt the next one is going to be commercial.
Americans should remember that America is not a synonym for World.
