The specially configured NASA DC-8 Flying Laboratory visited Australia in early June to carrying a team of scientists to observe and record the re-entry of the Hayabusa spacecraft. The starboard side contained seats for the teams of scientists and researchers, equiped with 2-way communication headsets to keep in touch with each other in-flight.
