ANOTHER RESOUNDING SUCCESS FOR 'JOURNALISM': NASA’s Crew-8 returns to Earth, successfully splashing down into Atlantic. “The four-member SpaceX Crew-8 aboard Crew Dragon Endeavour returned to Earth early Friday, completing their nearly eight-month mission in space. Their Endeavour spacecraft splashed down into the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Florida near Pensacola at 3:39 a.m. EDT, after undocking from the International Space Station some 34 hours earlier.”

That was published on Friday, the 25th of October. Hmm. The last time I was there, Pensacola was still in the Florida panhandle on the Gulf of Mexico. I don't think it moved since I was last there.

Give them some credit: UPI (United Press International) did finally correct their article 7 hours later.

I wonder how many emails & tweets it took before they finally looked at a map....
