1 00:00:00,420 --> 00:00:00,749 \h 2 00:00:00,750 --> 00:00:03,689 Josh Byerly/STS-133 Descent Commentator: Space shuttle Discovery now on final approach to the 3 00:00:03,690 --> 00:00:07,290 Kennedy Space Center. Just more than 30 seconds to go. 4 00:00:19,620 --> 00:00:22,020 Discovery's gear is down and locked. 5 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:34,013 Main gear touchdown. 6 00:00:34,570 --> 00:00:35,270 The nose of the shuttle being rotated down toward the flight deck. 7 00:00:38,270 --> 00:00:40,203 The parachute being deployed. 8 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,746 And nose gear touchdown and the end of a historic journey. 9 00:00:47,750 --> 00:00:53,416 And to the ship that has led the way time and time again, we say farewell, Discovery. 10 00:01:28,970 --> 00:01:29,856 Steve Lindsey/STS-133 Commander: And Houston, Discovery for the final time, wheel stop. 11 00:01:33,950 --> 00:01:36,046 Charlie Hobaugh/CAPCOM: Discovery, Houston, Pinto, great job by you and your crew. 12 00:01:37,320 --> 00:01:38,290 That was a great landing in tough conditions and it was an awesome docked mission that you all had. 13 00:01:42,950 --> 00:01:48,150 You were able to take Discovery up to a full 365 days of actual time on orbit. 14 00:01:49,110 --> 00:01:49,993 I think you'd call that a fleet leader and a leader of any manned vehicle for time in orbit. 15 00:01:54,360 --> 00:02:00,893 So, a job well done. We'll meet you in the post-landing tab for post-landing. Currently no Deltas. 16 00:02:02,940 --> 00:02:06,310 Steve Lindsey/STS-133 Commander: And copy that. Scorch we're headed to 53 and I'd like to thank you and your team 17 00:02:07,170 --> 00:02:07,366 and all the orbit teams for a fantastic mission as well as the Expedition 26 Team on orbit.
