Great Touchdown
This site is ideal for those who missed the Discovery launch which took the oldest man into space. US Senator John Glenn’s trip around the world made history even as the world watched.
NASA has a site at shuttle.nasa.gov which captures the triumphs and tribulations of the voyage. There is a history of previous launches and personal details about the astronauts who undertook scientific experiments in space.
It has some great pictures of earth which are hot from the oven. These pictures can also be ordered from the site. For space fanatics, the site has links to related sites of NASA and other space organisations across the world.
