STS-115 Space Shuttle Landing

A perfect landing for Atlantis at Kennedy's Shuttle Landing Facility. Touchdown completes STS-115's successful mission to resume construction of the International Space Station. The crew of six delivered the P3/P4 integrated truss segment and conducted three successful spacewalks primarily devoted to preparing the truss and its solar arrays for operation.

Since the shuttle operates in different conditions, (extreme heat, orbiting the earth etc) there isnt sufficient need for it...by putting them on, they would have to change different aspects of the shuttles design which favor other areas of the actual intention...lights are mainly to keep other aircraft away that they are comming in..since its just the shuttle, its not really worth all the effort putitng them in..

How come the space shuttle has no lights?
