| Night Landing
Discovery floated to Earth at the Kennedy Space Center in the
early morning hours of 21 February. These four pictures are shown separately
in this gallery, but they're interesting in sequence, to get a feel for the
way that a Space Shuttle glides in for a landing. Moonlight and spotlights
cast discovery in a (literally) unearthly glow.
