well this sucks. From CNN:

NASA officials said they last had contact with the shuttle at about 9 a.m. EST, and it had been expected to touch down at about 9:16 a.m. EST.

The shuttle was at 200,700 feet, traveling at 12,500 mph, when contact was lost.

The space shuttle is old technology but every replacement has had it’s budget cut fyi.
