00:00:05,550 --> 00:00:08,389
Josh Byerly/STS-132 Commentator: Space shuttle Atlantis now traveling 389 miles per hour,

3
00:00:08,390 --> 00:00:12,123
it is now on final approach to the Kennedy Space Center.

4
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:14,773
During this point in the flight, the shuttle's descent rate is 20 times steeper than a commercial airliner.

5
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:25,920
Its angle of attack, more than seven times steeper. Now under one minute to go in Atlantis' flight.

6
00:00:49,250 --> 00:00:58,183
Atlantis now beginning what is known as the pre-flair maneuver, it will pull the nose up a little bit right before it hits the runway.

7
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:03,893
Its speed now 320 miles per hour. The gear is down and locked. Main gear touchdown.

8
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:23,960
Atlantis' nose being now rotated down toward the runway. Chute being deployed.

9
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:28,083
And nose gear touchdown. Space shuttle Atlantis now comes home to the Kennedy Space Center for the final time.

10
00:01:34,930 --> 00:01:42,530
In 25 years, 32 flights and more than 120 million miles traveled. The legacy of Atlantis now in the history books.

11
00:02:34,190 --> 00:02:35,373
Ken Ham/STS-132 Commander: And Houston, Atlantis, we have wheelstop.

12
00:02:37,540 --> 00:02:39,380
Charlie Hobaugh/CAPCOM: Copy 
wheelstop. Atlantis, Hock, that landing was

13
00:02:40,500 --> 00:02:41,746
something that your Air Force crewmates should have really been proud of.

14
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:50,586
That looked pretty sweet. For you and your crew, that was a suiting end to an incredible mission.

15
00:02:51,510 --> 00:02:52,656
I'm sure that station crew members hated to see you leave, but we're glad to have you back. You guys executed flawlessly.

16
00:02:58,430 --> 00:02:59,990
And not only that you had a great time doing 
it, that was very evident from the ground.

17
00:03:02,670 --> 00:03:03,463
And everybody down here really enjoyed working with you.

18
00:03:05,610 --> 00:03:06,116
With that, we’ll get you back to work. We'll meet you in the post-landing page 5-3, there are no Deltas.

19
00:03:12,170 --> 00:03:14,599
Ken Ham/STS-132 Commander: OK, Scorch. Thanks and thanks to all you guys too.

20
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:15,056
We'll go to 5-3 and we'll finish up post-landing and turn this incredible machine back over to

21
00:03:20,410 --> 00:03:20,576
the ground teams to put it back in the barn for a little bit.
