About this work

Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — The primitiveness of the dunes (foreground) clash with the technology exhibited in the launch of Space Shuttle Atlantis for its rendezvous with the International Space Station on mission STS-115. Liftoff was on-time at 11:14:55 a.m. EDT. After launch attempts were scrubbed Aug. 27 and 29 and Sept. 3 and 8 due to weather and technical concerns, this launch was executed perfectly.
