About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — Trailing fire and smoke, Space Shuttle Atlantis races into the sky toward a rendezvous with the International Space Station on mission STS-117. Liftoff from Launch Pad 39A was on-time at 7:38:04 p.m. EDT. The shuttle is delivering a new segment to the starboard side of the International Space Station's backbone, known as the truss. Three spacewalks are planned to install the S3/S4 truss segment, deploy a set of solar arrays and prepare them for operation.
