Cross the Border

I didn't sleep especially well last night.  Had a case of tummy-funk, and Spykeetom's sick, too.  We were both in and out of bed all night.

Discovery is scheduled for landing in about an hour.  The mission, so far, has been quite the success, with the obligatory spectacular video of launch and rendezvous with the ISS.

Over on the commercial/private side of space development, Bigelow Aerospace got its Genesis-1 inflatable module up and into orbit.  The company plans to build a private space station out of these things.  Too cool.
