Just watching now - very funny working away then hearing some yank in the background saying "This is mission control"
Not sure if those pics in space are real or CG?
Amazing stuff though

And you guys are allowed out on your own?
If the landing is anything like the last one I watched, they will show a head-up display from the nose of the shuttle and you will get to see just how fast it comes in to land!
