Mission STS-135 carries a crew of four to the International Space Station to deliver supplies and spare parts to sustain station operations once the shuttles are retired.

OV-104 (cn OV-104) At 5:57 am EDT, after 13 days and 200 orbits around earth, Space Shuttle Atlantis completes mission STS-135 thus ending America’s 30-year Space Shuttle program. Since STS-1 in 1981, 355 individuals from 16 countries flew 852 times aboard five Space Shuttles. Together, they traveled more than 542 million miles. I feel privileged to have taken part in her last two missions. Farewell Space Shuttle… [1/160 sec, f/2.8, ISO 3200] |

OV-105 (cn OV-105) Space Shuttle Endeavour launches for the last time. Mission STS-134 carries six astronauts and the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) to the International Space Station. My remote camera was set up about 1/2 mile from Launch Pad 39A. The camera was triggered off using a timer and sound activated trigger built by T-Minus Productions. It is custom designed and built specifically to photograph rocket launches |

OV-104 (cn OV-104) Can you feel the power? Atlantis is seen making the final Space Shuttle launch on mission STS-135. This view is from Astronaut Road, along side Banana Creek, a bit less than 4 miles away from Launch Pad 39A. This marks my 6000th shot on a.net. |
