When Space Shuttle Discovery touched down at Edwards Air Force Base in Southern California on Sept. 11, 2009 to conclude mission STS-128, no one could have foreseen that it would be the last of 54 such landings at the famed desert air base.
NASA astronaut and STS-128 commander Rick "C.J." Sturckow returned to NASA's Dryden (now Armstrong) Flight Research Center at Edwards recently to recap the 13-day supply mission to the International Space Station for Dryden employees. Sturckow noted that the station is contributing to both scientific understanding and future solar system exploration.
Fifteen of Discovery's 39 missions landed at Edwards, the remainder at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The retired Space Shuttle is now enshrined at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum's Udvar-Hazy Center near Washington, D.C.
