KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -- Billows of clouds and smoke frame Space Shuttle Atlantis after a perfect on-time launch on mission STS-106 at 8:45:47 a.m. EDT. On the 11-day mission to the International Space Station, the seven-member crew will perform support tasks on orbit, transfer supplies and prepare the living quarters in the newly arrived Zvezda Service Module. The first long-duration crew, dubbed “Expedition One,” is due to arrive at the Station in late fall.
