When did the most recent Space Shuttle Atlantis Landing occur?
The space shuttle Atlantis arrived safely Friday morning under beautiful skies at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. 7 astronauts delivered spare parts to the International Space Station for an 11 day mission. The crew enjoyed a Thanksgiving meal of smoked Turkey, green beans and cornbread before landing. During this mission, Randy Bresnik, US astronaut had a six pound, thirteen ounce daughter born.
