After a very long and intensive week of training, the crew arrived home this evening for a day of well deserved R&R. Terry's pictures were simply incredible. Between flying the shuttle training aircraft, reviewing and stowing equipment, simulating an actual launch, practicing emergency evacuation procedures, training in multiple launch and landing simulators, holding numerous press conferences and meetings, examining the payload and flying his T-38 to Florida and back, I feel like he lived about 3 weeks worth in one week's time. Now we head to a final week of training before he goes into quarantine. Every crew is special, but this one really is one-of-a-kind!!!
