Earth landing as recorded in the reviewed NASA clock source. Original summary PDF 117 prints actual local launch 03:55:17 EST and main-gear touchdown 08:32:24 UTC, with wheel stop 08:33:16 distinct. NASA’s mission page gives the landing minute; its highlights mistakenly say six crew, while its named roster, report and Wikipedia establish seven. This is Hubble servicing, not a new launch of the telescope. The actual seven-person flight roster is adopted.
