Well everyone keeps calling and asking what Terry is doing now that he is home. Most people think that he has time off but actually the crew jumped right back into work. After the return ceremony on Monday, Terry stopped by the church for a little welcome home party with family and friends. It was almost magical being able to see him and touch him less than 20 hours after he had been in space. He came home to find the house and yard decorated by neighbors and then he crashed in the bed for a good 14 hours of hard-earned rest. Tuesday was an off day for the crew, Wednesday Terry stopped by the office for a few things and then Thursday he was back in the robotics simulator with the 131 crew. The STS-130 crew has two weeks of debriefs with all the training teams and also has to download and sort through all of their video and photos. They will use all the best photos and video for their big presentation at Space Center Houston on Tuesday, March 23rd at 6:30pm. After they show the official STS-130 movie, they will then take it on the road for about 60 days, traveling to most of the NASA sites and several other locations as well. Whew, no rest for the weary just yet but our excitement levels are still high and I can't wait to relive every bit of this great adventure.
