If you go NASA's site you can view a video of the landing.
Well done all involved.[clap][clap]
As it flew over early on Wednesday morning the sonic boom very abruptbly woke us up. It took a couple of minutes for us to realise what it was.
We got the sonic boom as well - a bit like an earthquake
We seen it live, down at Titsville, looking across from the Indian river with all the Americans, it was a sight...although we were some distance away the noise level was still very loud,all the windows at the hotel were vibrating...it was well worth the 2 days out of our holiday to see, we had travelled down on the Friday but as you know they cancelled at the last minute
Taffy
Brilliant pictures, thanks. Nic & Sue
