00:01:06,630 --> 00:01:00,180
and rain Twitter Roger sir we have no

2
00:01:07,860 --> 00:01:06,640
constraints along and gently mmt is

3
00:01:12,390 --> 00:01:07,870
working the lazy to get cleared to

4
00:01:13,890 --> 00:01:12,400
launch after that and Atlantis looks

5
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:13,900
like everything's come together here

6
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:15,690
looks like a good morning to launch so

7
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:18,490
my Kuna team have a good mother but a

8
00:01:28,020 --> 00:01:19,810
great mission and we'll see you back

9
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:28,030
here and we can I ask thank you oh my

10
00:01:55,830 --> 00:01:35,530
god people father look here an MPD

11
00:02:00,200 --> 00:01:58,679
and the orbiter access arm and is now

12
00:02:03,300 --> 00:02:00,210
being retracted away from the vehicle

13
00:02:05,700 --> 00:02:03,310
this is the walkway used by the crew to

14
00:02:06,990 --> 00:02:05,710
gain entry into and out of the vehicle

15
00:02:29,750 --> 00:02:07,000
and it can be returned to position

16
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:31,399
and the three main engines are being

17
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:54,280
t-minus three minutes and Counting and

18
00:03:00,070 --> 00:02:55,970
all is going well for today's launch

19
00:03:02,530 --> 00:03:00,080
this mission carries a crew of six

20
00:03:09,070 --> 00:03:02,540
five of those days doctors in near space

21
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:09,080
station a protest conductor has

22
00:03:13,890 --> 00:03:10,970
requested that pilot Brent jet clear the

23
00:03:16,270 --> 00:03:13,900
caution and warning memory system

24
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:16,280
everything looks good and we're cleared

25
00:03:47,290 --> 00:03:44,570
for launch today hey we have a go for

26
00:03:52,330 --> 00:03:47,300
main engine start main engines up and

27
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:52,340
running three two one booster ignition

28
00:03:56,620 --> 00:03:54,290
and liftoff of the space shuttle

29
00:03:57,140 --> 00:03:56,630
Atlantis on a 10-day mission for dr.

30
00:04:00,210 --> 00:03:57,150

32
00:04:09,540 --> 00:04:08,050
Atlantis Atlantis into the world to

33
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:09,550
place the shuttle and I headed down the

34
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:11,170
wings level position for the eight and a

35
00:04:27,930 --> 00:04:26,279
thirty seconds into the flight Atlantis

36
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:27,940
is free liquid fuel main engines now

37
00:04:31,110 --> 00:04:29,770
throttling back in a three-step fashion

38
00:04:33,300 --> 00:04:31,120
to sixty-seven percent of rated

39
00:04:35,129 --> 00:04:33,310
performance that will dampen the stress

40
00:04:52,500 --> 00:04:35,139
on the shuttles Aero surfaces as it

41
00:04:56,380 --> 00:04:54,610
one minute into the flight the main

42
00:04:58,150 --> 00:04:56,390
engines now beginning to rev up the full

43
00:04:59,950 --> 00:04:58,160
throttle 104 percent of rate of

44
00:05:01,660 --> 00:04:59,960
performance they throttle up call coming

00:05:20,380 --> 00:05:18,770
traveling at 1500 miles per hour now ten

49
00:05:23,830 --> 00:05:20,390
miles downrange from the Kennedy Space

50
00:05:25,540 --> 00:05:23,840
Center 13 miles in altitude the shuttles

51
00:05:27,430 --> 00:05:25,550
three main engines three auxiliary power

52
00:05:43,980 --> 00:05:27,440
units three power producing fuel cells

53
00:05:48,550 --> 00:05:46,540
one minute 50 seconds into the flight

54
00:05:51,430 --> 00:05:48,560
standing by for solid rocket booster

00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:51,440
shut down in jettison that command to

56
00:05:54,700 --> 00:05:53,210
come from the on-board computers to the

00:06:11,110 --> 00:06:09,440
rocket booster separation guidance now

60
00:06:13,510 --> 00:06:11,120
converging on Atlantis's three main

61
00:06:16,060 --> 00:06:13,520
engines as they begin to steer for a

62
00:06:30,370 --> 00:06:16,070
precise keyhole in space for main engine

63
00:06:32,110 --> 00:06:30,380
cutoff - - engine Marone those calls

66
00:06:37,450 --> 00:06:35,720
Atlantis indicating that the solid

67
00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:37,460
rocket boosters provided the desired

68
00:06:42,250 --> 00:06:39,110
performance during the first stage of

69
00:06:44,110 --> 00:06:42,260
this morning's ascend to orbit and if

70
00:06:45,730 --> 00:06:44,120
one and if one main engine should fail

71
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:45,740
Atlantis has enough inertia to make a

72
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:48,050
transoceanic abort - Marone spain

73
00:06:52,750 --> 00:06:50,330
however all three main engines continue

74
00:07:23,580 --> 00:06:52,760
to function by the book three minutes

75
00:07:28,620 --> 00:07:25,440
in fact we do have live video at this

76
00:07:33,350 --> 00:07:28,630
time of all six astronauts who'll be

77
00:07:39,210 --> 00:07:36,120
Marsha Ivins mission specialists is

78
00:07:45,700 --> 00:07:39,220
preparing for her fourth flight aboard

79
00:07:51,540 --> 00:07:47,860
and of course our other astronauts

80
00:07:54,850 --> 00:07:51,550
include our commander and pilot

81
00:07:57,930 --> 00:07:54,860

mission specialist John Grunsfeld he'll

83
00:08:08,590 --> 00:08:04,550
be making his second flight in this

84
00:08:11,890 --> 00:08:08,600
place today and of course rounding out

85
00:08:14,290 --> 00:08:11,900
the crew of mission specialist jerry

86
00:08:21,749 --> 00:08:14,300

Jerry Linenger will be remaining in

89
00:08:29,980 --> 00:08:28,310
space he will be staying for about four

90
00:09:07,540 --> 00:08:29,990
months until Atlantis goes back to get

91
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:09,860
this is shuttle launch control at

92
00:09:17,139 --> 00:09:13,170
t-minus three hours and holding and we

93
00:09:19,819 --> 00:09:17,149
have our first look of our commander

94
00:09:23,379 --> 00:09:19,829
Michael Baker as he is being suited up

95
00:09:25,790 --> 00:09:23,389

jerry linenger is going to be going into

99
00:09:43,010 --> 00:09:41,490
space this on his second trip but it

100
00:09:45,470 --> 00:09:43,020
will certainly be as longest he'll be

101
00:09:50,030 --> 00:09:45,480
staying on the MIR Space Station mission

102
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:50,040

00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:19,650
entered the orbiter she is on the

112
00:12:24,050 --> 00:12:21,690
mid-deck where she will take her ride

113
00:12:31,150 --> 00:12:24,060
into space today and she is making final

114
00:12:38,420 --> 00:12:35,870
our pilot Brent jet is going to be the

115
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:38,430
next end of the vehicle and he'll be
