[UPDATE] Orbicon Corp /News: The Shuttle Has Landed

Orbicon 'Recent News' section updated yesterday with this...
Quote:
August 9: The Discovery shuttle and crew arrived safely this morning at Edwards Air Force Base in California.
It links to this CNN article.

I know, I know, it's OOG, but still.
I'm always awestruck by the marvels of technology. I was both ecstatic and relieved that they are back on Earth. "Welcome home, friends."

P.S. Interesting that the CNN page appears, and Orbicon Corp remains in the browser address field.

I was always shocked by how precise they can land the shuttles. They pilot them from freaking orbit onto a landing strip. That's crazy cool.

We're viewing the CNN page through a frame on the Orbicon website. Check the source! It's only like 8 lines long! Confused

Only if you use orbicon.org instead of orbiconcorp.com

Just visited the orbiconcorp site again and I'm sure the blinking orange dot has gotten smaller. Could be because I'm using firefox at home and IE at work.

Anyone else confirm or deny the change in size?
