About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — Space Shuttle Atlantis, mounted on a mobile launch platform atop a crawler transporter, passes through the gate to Launch Pad 39A. First motion of the shuttle out of the Vehicle Assembly Building was at 5:02 a.m. EDT. In late February, while Atlantis was on the launch pad, Atlantis' external tank received hail damage during a severe thunderstorm that passed through the Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex 39 area.
