Uploaded by NASAtelevision on Jul 8, 2011
Space shuttle Commander Chris Ferguson and crewmates Pilot Doug Hurley, and Mission Specialists Sandy Magnus and Rex Walheim are on their way to the International Space Station after launching from NASA's Kennedy Space Center at 11:29 a.m. EDT on Friday, July 8. STS-135 is the final mission of NASA's Space Shuttle Program.
The 12-day mission will deliver the Raffaello multi-purpose logistics module filled with more than 8,000 pounds of supplies and spare parts to sustain space station operations after the shuttles are retired. STS-135 is the 135th shuttle flight, the 33rd flight for Atlantis and the 37th shuttle mission dedicated to station assembly and maintenance,

Shuttle (like the Vietnam War) taught us many things about what NOT to do. We learned Wernher von Braun was correct about not using Solid fuel on a rocket that carries people. We proved re-usability, but we also learned about its huge impracticality by the 3rd launch. It never came remotely came close to its promised $50million p/launch cost. It was 1.5 billion. Its a shame on all Americans for letting the program continue so long because so many people and resources were lost.
