STS-132 ATLANTIS LIFT & MATE TO ET/SRB STACK 2010-2680
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- Bathed in xenon lights, space shuttle Atlantis embarks on its final journey from the Vehicle Assembly Building to Launch Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. First motion was at 8:42 p.m. EDT. It will take the crawler-transporter about six hours to carry the shuttle, attached to its external fuel tank and solid rocket boosters, to the seaside launch pad. The milestone move paves the way for the launch of the STS-135 mission to the International Space Station, targeted for July 8. STS-135 will be the 33rd flight of Atlantis, the 37th shuttle mission to the space station, and the 135th and final mission of NASA's Space Shuttle Program.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – As the sun rises at the Shuttle Landing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, preparations are under way to back NASA's Shuttle Carrier Aircraft, or SCA, away from the mate-demate device. Space shuttle Endeavour has been fitted with an aerodynamic tailcone and secured atop the aircraft for its upcoming ferry flight. The SCA, a modified 747 jetliner, will fly Endeavour to Los Angeles where it will be placed on public display at the California Science Center. This is the final ferry flight scheduled in the Space Shuttle Program era. For more information on the shuttles' transition and retirement, visit http://www.nasa.gov/transition.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- Xenon lights illuminate space shuttle Discovery as it makes its nighttime trek, known as "rollout," from the Vehicle Assembly Building to Launch Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. It will take the shuttle, attached to its external fuel tank, twin solid rocket boosters and mobile launcher platform, about seven hours to complete the move. This is the second time Discovery has rolled out to the pad for the STS-133 mission, and comes after a thorough check and modifications to the shuttle's external tank. Targeted to liftoff Feb. 24, Discovery will take the Permanent Multipurpose Module (PMM) packed with supplies and critical spare parts, as well as Robonaut 2 (R2) to the International Space Station.

NASA Identifier: NIX-EC96-43494PC-03 Die Mission STS-76 geht zu Ende, als der Orbiter Atlantis auf der Betonpiste 22 der Edwards Air Force Base landet. Die Bedingungen bei der EAFB waren klar und ruhig ohne Wettersorgen. Die Landung erfolgte 11 Minuten vor Tageslicht um 5: 29 Uhr Ortszeit, was nach den Flugregeln als Landung bei Tageslicht gilt. Der Deorbit-Brand ereignete sich um 7: 24 Uhr EST. Atlantis führte eine 275 Grad Linksabbiegung in die Landebahn aus und zwei Schallwellen waren bei Edwards 3min vor der Landung zu hören. Main Gear Touchdown an 9 Tagen 5 Stunden 15 min 53 sec oder 8: 28: 57 EST. Nasenberührung an einem MET von 9 Tagen 5 Std. 15 min 4 sec oder 8: 29: 08 EST und Räder stoppen an 9 Tagen 5 Stunden 16 min 48 sec oder 8: 29: 52 EST.
