Space Shuttle: Last landing
"Atlantis and the STS-135 crew touched down at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida just before dawn on July 21, 2011, wrapping up the final mission of the 30-year space shuttle program.“ (Source: NASA)
A deeply emotional moment. For anyone fascinated by aerospace and the engineering behind it. With the landing of Atlantis, not only did a mission come to an end, but an entire era. Thirty years of spaceflight history, marked by technological excellence, courage and curiosity.
And as with every great milestone, one question remains: What is the next frontier?
