Fireworks explode over Atlantis, marking the end of the space shuttle program! The final event ever saw Atlantis towed down the street to the KSC Visitors Complex and its new $100 million museum home.

It looks a little bit like a whole splashing water...

Love the photo, but it makes me cry, my heart is broken. Don't want to open a discussion about it but for me the end of the program is an epic failure. LLAP and RIP all the Space Shuttles!

Why was it towed on a platform instead of its own landing gear?
