A Big WHEW! for the Shuttle

The shuttle landed safely this morning. The crew then milled around on the ground to examine the heat tiles on the belly and to allow time for their rectums to unclench. I've been in some life-threatening situations in my time, but I would not have wanted to be on that vessel when it entered the atmosphere. Who knows when the next shuttle will launch or whether it will ever take to the skies again. I stick with my post below, we need to look in other directions. Take your time, earthlings, the universe will wait.
