Last flight of Discovery

After almost three decades of service and over one hundred and forty million miles traveled, STS-133 blasted off from the Kenedy space ctr. on it's final mission today.

In my opinion this is a bitter sweet event in history as it reminds me of how proud I am to be an American and at the same time how sad it is the shuttle program is drawing to a close. I am saddened that the best days at Cape Canaveral are behind us....

RE: Last flight of Discovery

We got to see it come over the flying field a few moments after launch today. Awesome sight.
