This was the first time I ever watched a live landing.

I still get 'goosebumps,' marevlling at how they land a 200,000 glider!

BTW welcome back to Earth Sunita 'Suni' Williams. She has set a record for the longest time in space by a woman - 195 days.

BTW -- Sunni Williams' dog Gorby, has become a minor star during this shuttle mission.
