07. Did you feel nervous or just excited? (A K2S Question)
From The Space Library
I don't think any crewmember has been afraid during re-entry, but like most experiences, the excitement of it causes some anxiety and nervousness. Remember, you are in a big glider with not a lot of options if you encounter a major problem.
