: Snipola the Enterprise was released at an altitude of between 19,000 and 24,700 feet from the attach struts of the SCA and was flown, powerless, to a landing. "powerless"? As opposed to what? A powered landing? I know they probably mean as a glider, powerless as in no engines. But why make that distinction when it's the ONLY way the Shuttle comes in for a landing? Like they're gonna light the OMS engines and declare a go-around?
