A Washington Post article written before the shuttle breakup quoted one of the crew:
"Do we really have to come back?" astronaut David Brown jokingly asked Mission Control before the ride home.
and in the preceding paragraph:
Some of Columbia's crew members didn't want their time in space to end.
And here's the one before that:
The only problem of note was a pair of malfunctioning dehumidifiers, which temporarily raised temperatures inside the laboratory to the low 80s, 10 degrees higher than desired.
Very eerie.
