And they drop right back down pretty much where they stirred from. Ever worked in a machine shop that had banks of Negative Ion Generators in the ceiling for dust control? Like that. Ps. Didn't the LE module use the smaller outrigger thrusters to land? I don't think the main engine was operational as it approached the surface b/c minimal gravity so it's not like the thing needed massive energy to keep from a hard touchdown.
