About this work

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – At Edwards Air Force Base in California, space shuttle Atlantis is moved inside the mate/demate device for attachment to the Shuttle Carrier Aircraft, or SCA, a modified Boeing 747. Atlantis landed at Edwards on May 24, which concluded mission STS-125, after two landing opportunities at Kennedy were waved off due to weather concerns. Atlantis is being returned to Florida on a ferry flight on the SCA.
