EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. - Discovery and its crew of seven glided safely back to Earth on Tuesday, ending a riveting, at times agonizing, 14-day test of space shuttle safety that was shadowed by the ghosts of Columbia.

Good news for all involved.  :)

I have the greatest respect for the money your governments throw at space related stuff. It takes foresight and dedication.

Here's hoping they fly again soon.
