Summary

Description
English: CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – As the sun rises over Florida's Space Coast, the landing convoy crew that will make space shuttle Atlantis safe and secure for towing to its processing hangar begins to work on the spacecraft following wheelstop on the Shuttle Landing Facility's Runway 15 at NASA's Kennedy Space Center. Atlantis' final return from space at 5:57 a.m. EDT completed the 13-day, 5.2-million-mile STS-135 mission. Securing the space shuttle fleet's place in history, Atlantis safely and successfully brought a close to NASA's Space Shuttle Program. STS-135 delivered spare parts, equipment and supplies in the Raffaello multi-purpose logistics module that will sustain station operations for the next year. STS-135 was the 33rd and final flight for Atlantis, which has spent 307 days in space, orbited Earth 4,848 times and traveled 125,935,769 miles.

Deutsch: Während die Sonne über Floridas „Raumfahrtküste“ aufgeht, beginnt die Landekonvoi-Crew zu arbeiten, sie sichert den Raumgleiter für den Schlepp zum Hangar, der dem Stillstand auf der Landebahn 15 im Kennedy Space Center der NASA folgt. Die letztmalige Rückkehr der Atlantis um 11:57 MESZ war der Abschluss der 13-tägigen, 5,2 Millionen-Meilen STS-135-Mission. Mit der sicheren und erfolgreichen Beendigung des Space-Shuttle-Programms sichert sich die Atlantis in der Space-Shuttle-Flotte ihren Platz in der Geschichte. STS-135 lieferte Ersatzteile, Hilfs- und Ausrüstungsgegenstände im Mehrzweck-Logistikmodul Raffaello, so dass der Betrieb der Raumstation fürs nächste Jahr gesichert ist. STS-135 war der 33. und letzte Flug für die Atlantis, die 307 Tage im All verbrachte, die Erde 4848-mal umrundete und dabei 125.935.769 Meilen zurücklegte.
