Mike Okuda shares on his blog the animated display he created for Discovery's final landing. Shortly after Space Shuttle Discovery landed [March 9], one of the big screens at Mission Control displayed a proud "Welcome Home" banner. I did that graphic "wallpaper" animation, as I'd done for a few missions in the past. These banners are played in the background as the flight control team takes a few moments to celebrate a job well done. Normally, those banners show the mission patch for the flight just completed. But this one was special. For this, Discovery's final voyage into the final frontier, I featured all 39 emblems from her storied career. You can view Mike Okuda's animated "Welcome Home" banner on his website. | |
