The end of one Discovery marks the beginning of another

With the current Shuttle program coming to a close this is a great (short) video of Discovery's launch this morning. With only three launches left, the Discovery's last flight is scheduled for September this year.

After working *somewhat* in the field for the last five years, I must say it's going to be a sad, sad, day to see the ol' gal get grounded. But, with Canada's role in rover development and navigation systems, I'm pumped to see how our next forray into space comes to fruition. Moon, Mars and beyond, we're going to have to get around!
