Live coverage is on NASA TV this morning of the spacecraft's return.
The last few hours of the Stardust mission will be filled with significant milestones. At approximately 12:57 a.m. Eastern time, the spacecraft literally pushed the return capsule away. The capsule will land Jan. 15 at about 5:12 a.m. in the Utah Test and Training Range.
