    Hate when they will go into radio silence during re-entry,Like the Capcom on Apollo 11 Said when Eagle landed it leaves "A bunch of guys about to turn blue" I only breath again when i hear some audio.

    Just hit Entry interface,the edge of Earth athmosphere.

    If anybody has Sky News HD,Kay Burley promised they will show it's Landing with Glorious views of its scorch marks earliar today.

    Because they want to go explore the solar system rather than operate an expensive LEO vehicle... Is it over half a billion euro for each shuttle launch?!

    $450m would be the average cost of a shuttle launch.
