1
00:00:08,470 --> 00:00:06,550
six six and a half minutes from

2
00:00:10,870 --> 00:00:08,480
atlantis's touchdown this shuttle is

3
00:00:13,990 --> 00:00:12,870
uh two times the speed of sound at the

4
00:00:18,790 --> 00:00:14,000
moment

5
00:00:36,229 --> 00:00:18,800
and is currently 86 000 feet above

6
00:00:39,910 --> 00:00:38,150
atlantis is approaching the imaginary

7
00:00:41,190 --> 00:00:39,920
circle leading towards the runway that's

8
00:00:43,350 --> 00:00:41,200
created by the

9
00:00:44,869 --> 00:00:43,360
microwave scan beam landing system

10
00:00:46,709 --> 00:00:44,879
that'll allow the commander and pilot to

11
00:00:48,709 --> 00:00:46,719
guide the vehicle as it makes its final

12
00:00:49,670 --> 00:00:48,719
approach to runway 33 at kennedy space

13
00:00:51,590 --> 00:00:49,680
center

14
00:00:53,350 --> 00:00:51,600
commander will be taking control of the

15
00:00:55,110 --> 00:00:53,360
shuttle's steering once its speed is

16
00:00:56,630 --> 00:00:55,120
dropped below mach 1. it's below the

17
00:00:59,830 --> 00:00:56,640
speed of sound

18
00:01:01,430 --> 00:00:59,840
atlantis is currently

19
00:01:03,510 --> 00:01:01,440
traveling at two times the speed of

20
00:01:07,429 --> 00:01:03,520
sound we actually have the runway inside

21
00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:12,070
copy

22
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:35,109
i couldn't have picked a clearer day

23
00:01:35,119 --> 00:01:40,310
fifty bucks

24
00:01:43,429 --> 00:01:41,830
five minutes now until it lands this

25
00:01:44,469 --> 00:01:43,439
touchdown

26
00:01:45,990 --> 00:01:44,479
currently

27
00:01:47,510 --> 00:01:46,000
uh 60 seconds

28
00:01:49,429 --> 00:01:47,520
approaching the hack

29
00:01:52,310 --> 00:01:49,439
no change to the weather the winds will

30
00:01:55,749 --> 00:01:52,320
be all headwind 12 peak 18.

31
00:01:57,910 --> 00:01:55,759
nominal shoot

32
00:02:19,670 --> 00:01:57,920
where did we copy all 12 peak 18 all

33
00:02:22,550 --> 00:02:21,270
seeing here the same view that the

34
00:02:26,390 --> 00:02:22,560
commander and pilot are seeing from

35
00:02:28,630 --> 00:02:26,400
their heads up display as they approach

36
00:02:30,550 --> 00:02:28,640
kennedy space center they'll be

37
00:02:32,150 --> 00:02:30,560
performing the header meeting the

38
00:02:33,910 --> 00:02:32,160
heading alignment circle here in just a

39
00:02:36,309 --> 00:02:33,920
moment

40
00:02:38,309 --> 00:02:36,319
where they'll be making a 300 degree

41
00:02:42,630 --> 00:02:38,319
turn right hand

42
00:02:42,640 --> 00:02:47,990
to line up with runway 33

43
00:02:50,869 --> 00:02:49,350
commander

44
00:02:53,910 --> 00:02:50,879

45
00:02:55,830 --> 00:02:53,920
uh flying space shuttle atlantis

46
00:02:58,550 --> 00:02:55,840
now that the shuttle is uh

47
00:03:00,910 --> 00:02:58,560
reached its subsonic speed it's going

48
00:03:04,309 --> 00:03:00,920
now at a rate of

49
00:03:06,390 --> 00:03:04,319
625 miles per hour

50
00:03:10,470 --> 00:03:06,400
currently 44 000

51
00:03:59,429 --> 00:03:11,750
less than four minutes now until

52
00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:04,630
atlanta is slightly low at the 180.

68
00:04:54,830 --> 00:04:52,320
lines up with the runway now two minutes

69
00:04:56,469 --> 00:04:54,840
