STS-135 Atlantis: Covering the Last Shuttle Ever (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781505246063)

see the last Shuttle mission thru the eyes of an observer who has been watching since the first Cape launch in the mid-Twentieth Century. Forty photo oils illustrate the mission span from May of 2011 when Atlantis rolled out from its Orbital Processing Facility, through launch on July 8th, from Pad 39A. Then see what runs the voyage and welcome the Shuttle's return home fourteen days and 5,000,000+ miles later. Learn how amazing the program's accomplishments were, as you get an up close look not seen by the public. Feel what it was like to be in the mix as the hardware moved thru the Space Center and up to ISS and back, as the USA, NASA, and USAF team worked the magic that was the Shuttle.
