Space Shuttle Atlantis 1985-2011 Tribute. HD

Atlantis (OV-104) was delivered to Kennedy Space Center in April 1985. It lifted off on its maiden voyage on Oct. 3, 1985, on mission 51-J, the second dedicated Department of Defense flight. Later missions included the launch of the Galileo interplanetary probe to Jupiter on STS-34 in October 1989, and STS-37, with the Gamma Ray Observatory (GRO) as its primary payload, in April 1991.
STS-135 on 28 June 2011: This is the final mission of Space Shuttle Atlantis and the last mission for the Space Shuttle Program. STS-135 will fly with a crew of 4 astronauts; the reduced crew size allows for rescue by regularly scheduled Soyuz missions if necessary.

Atlantis is named after a two-masted sailing ship that was operated for the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute from 1930 to 1966.

Wonderful video for my favourite Shuttle. I was so happy when I heard, she'd be the last one flying. When she's in the KSC museum, I'm going to visit her. :-)

My most favorite thing I love was this most beautiful peace of engineering. I was crying while I was typing this! I love this space shuttle!!!!!!!!!!

I've had the honor of seeing her launch many times, up close. A 2 hour drive and I'm there. Haven't missed a launch in 7 years! I'll be there Friday to give a final *SALUTE*. the weather is iffy, but I'll still be there when she does launch. Outstanding video!!!

The title needs to be changed. To me it reads like the Atlantis was lost in an accident the same way Challenger and Columbia were...... which is not the case.
