About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — The Shuttle Carrier Aircraft, a modified Boeing 747, kicks up dust as it touches down at KSC’s Shuttle Landing Facility. It is carrying the orbiter Atlantis on top. Strong cross winds caused the SCA to land left wheels first. Atlantis landed in California Feb. 19 concluding mission STS-98. The ferry flight began in California March 1; unfavorable weather conditions kept it on the ground at Altus AFB, Okla., until it could return to Florida.
