CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Space shuttle Atlantis launches through the clouds from Launch Pad 39A on a balmy Florida afternoon at NASA's Kennedy Space Center. Liftoff on its STS-129 mission came at 2:28 p.m. EST Nov. 16. Aboard are crew members Commander Charles O. Hobaugh; Pilot Barry E. Wilmore; and Mission Specialists Leland Melvin, Randy Bresnik, Mike Foreman and Robert L. Satcher Jr. On STS-129, the crew will deliver two ExPRESS Logistics Carriers to the International Space Station, the largest of the shuttle's cargo carriers, containing 15 spare pieces of equipment including two gyroscopes, two nitrogen tank assemblies, two pump modules, an ammonia tank assembly and a spare latching end effector for the station's robotic arm. Atlantis will return to Earth a station crew member, Nicole Stott, who has spent more than two months aboard the orbiting laboratory. STS-129 is slated to be the final space shuttle Expedition crew rotation flight.

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- Billows of smoke and steam nearly obscure the twin columns of fire boosting space shuttle Atlantis into space for a rendezvous with the International Space Station on mission STS-122. Liftoff was on time at 2:45 p.m. EST. This is the third launch attempt for Atlantis since December 2007 to carry the European Space Agency's Columbus laboratory to the station. During the 11-day mission, the crew's prime objective is to attach the laboratory to the Harmony module, adding to the station's size and capabilities. Photo credit: Scott Andrews KSC-08pd0248

STS-65 Columbia, OV-102, lifts off from KSC LC Pad 39A
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Atop twin towers of flame, space shuttle Endeavour erupts from the smoke and steam as it hurtles into space from Launch Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Liftoff on the STS-126 mission was on time at 7:55 p.m. EST. STS-126 is the 124th space shuttle flight and the 27th flight to the International Space Station. The mission will feature four spacewalks and work that will prepare the space station to house six crew members for long-duration missions. Photo courtesy of Scott Andrews KSC-08pd3726

Zusammenfassung
Der Startkomplex 39 befindet sich in teilweiser Dunkelheit, während das Space Shuttle Discovery auf eine achttägige Mission im Erdorbit zusteuert. Der Start erfolgte planmäßig um 7: 10 Uhr am 3. Februar 1994.
Das Space-Shuttle-Programm war von 1981 bis 2011 das bemannte Trägerprogramm der US-Regierung, das von der NASA verwaltet wurde und 1972 offiziell begann. Das Space-Shuttle-System - bestehend aus einem Orbiter, der mit zwei wiederverwendbaren Feststoffraketen-Boostern und einem externen Treibstofftank gestartet wurde - brachte bis zu acht Astronauten und bis zu 23.000 kg Nutzlast in eine niedrige Erdumlaufbahn (LEO). Nach Abschluss seiner Mission würde der Orbiter wieder in die Erdatmosphäre eintreten und als Gleitschirm landen. Obwohl das Konzept seit den späten 1960er Jahren erforscht wurde, begann das Programm offiziell 1972 und stand nach den letzten Apollo- und Skylab-Flügen Mitte der 1970er Jahre im Mittelpunkt des bemannten NASA-Betriebs. Es begann mit dem Start des ersten Shuttles Columbia am 12. April 1981 auf STS-1. und beendete seine letzte Mission, STS-135, die von Atlantis geflogen wurde, im Juli 2011.
