Discovery landed today at Kennedy Space Center at the finale of her very last mission ever. While it was definitely sad walking away from Discovery on the runway, the landing itself was wonderful and happy. Gorgeous weather (albeit a bit windy) allowed us to see the vehicle in the sky before we even heard the double sonic booms. Here's a photo montage of what I got to experience today:
