Discovery returns safely to Earth
The Space Shuttle Discovery has touched down successfully at Edwards Air Force Base in California at around 1312 BST (0512 PST; 1212 GMT) after bad weather forced it to land here instead of the intended Florida landing site, this was the first space shuttle mission since 2 years ago in 2003 when Columbia broke up on re-entry.
