CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – At NASA Kennedy Space Center's Shuttle Landing Facility, platforms of the mate-demate device surround the 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft with space shuttle Discovery on top. The piggybacked shuttle and aircraft touched down on runway 33 at 12:05 p.m. EDT. Discovery landed at Edwards Air Force Base in California on Sept. 11 after the 13-day STS-128 mission to the International Space Station. Landings at Kennedy were waved off on two days due to inclement weather, leading to the landing at Edwards. The two-day return flight from California began at 9:20 a.m. EDT Sept. 20.
