On Thursday morning at Florida, the space shuttle Atlantis landed safely. The NASA's Landing Blog gave nice updates about the re-entry and the landing of the shuttle.
Some interesting facts:
1. The shuttle covered the distance from the Indian Ocean to Florida in one hour flat.
2. It was flying at the speed of around 13,000 miles per hour.
3. This was the (approximately) 6th flight of the Shuttle Atlantis.
Till the next time, Bye Bye Atlantis.
