It would help if you tell what time it is and what station you watch it on

Sorry Helldiver, I was not watching on TV, I was live from Cocoa Beach, FL. Watched it come in above speed of sound, then slow to make it's final approach turns. From what I understand it is a one shot deal. There are no engines to boost it if the pilot undershoots the glide path to the runway, no go around if he is too high on final. Pretty impressive sight coming into view of the naked eye!

Yo Guys;

The best place to watch all NASA activities is on NASA TV for free.
