About this work

Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — Sunrise east of the NASA News Center reveals the cloud layer that contributed to the decision to change the landing of Space Shuttle Discovery to Edwards Air Force Base in California. Due to weather concerns, the landing was deferred to the alternate site. The 13-day, 21-hour Return to Flight STS-114 mission ended on Runway 22 at 8:11:22 a.m. EDT with Mission Commander Eileen Collins on the controls.
