The space shuttle Discovery just made a perfect landing at Edwards Airforce Base in the Mojave Desert. What a magical feeling, to imagine the descent from the reaches of the human experience to the familiar here.

My hope is that, with all of the negative press lately, the U.S. space program continues to receive the funding needed for the Mars mission and beyond. My other, bigger hope is that space tourism becomes a more affordable reality (which could help with the funding part) because I’d really like to get there before I’m gone.
I agree. It is important that we continue to explore. I just hope that this isn’t W’s Environmental plan.
