CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- At NASA Kennedy Space Center's Shuttle Landing Facility, STS-135 Mission Specialist Rex Walheim is seated in a Gulfstream III jet that will fly him and his family back to NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston. Space shuttle Atlantis and its crew touched down on Kennedy's Shuttle Landing Facility runway 5:57 a.m., July 21, 2011, bringing a close to 30 years of space shuttle missions. Securing the space shuttle fleet's place in history, Atlantis marked the 26th nighttime landing of the Space Shuttle Program and the 78th landing at Kennedy. Atlantis and its crew delivered to the International Space Station the Raffaello multi-purpose logistics module packed with more than 9,400 pounds of spare parts, equipment and supplies that will sustain station operations for the next year. STS-135 was the 33rd and final flight for Atlantis and the final mission of the Space Shuttle Program.

Summary

The original finding aid described this as:

Description: Photographic documentation of STS-62 Mission Specialists Charles ``Sam`` Gemar (020), Marsha Ivins, and Pierre Thuot (021-022) working at the Dexterous End Effector (DEE) controls on the Space Shuttle Columbia's aft flight deck. The DEE is a device on the business end of the Remote Manipulator System's (RMS's) robotic arm, which enables the RMS to grapple and secure objects. The purpose of the experiment conducted during STS-62 was to improve the dexterity and alignment accuracy of the shuttle's RMS by adding an improved end effector and grapple fixture to the robotic arm.
