    Astronauts Bob and Doug will be landing in the SpaceX capsule tomorrow. NASA set splashdown for 2:48 p.m. off the coast of Pensacola in the Gulf of Mexico, far from the projected path of Tropical Storm Isaias that’s forecast to travel up Florida’s east coast. The coast near Panama City is the alternative site.

    Cool.

    Pic of unmanned SpaceX splashdown from earlier test flight. Guess tomorrow will look something like this.

    Its said to be coming down 33 miles out from the coast. About 10 miles east of Gulf Shores. Better have a good set of eyes.

    Seems there would have been security to keep private vessels away. No class or respect from those guys. Really no point in being there.
