00:00:47,590 --> 00:00:37,600
atlantis reaching the rest of its

00:00:52,470 --> 00:00:50,549
houston is now controlling

16
00:00:54,470 --> 00:00:52,480
the role maneuver is complete atlantis

17
00:00:59,029 --> 00:00:54,480
is in a headstand position on course for

18
00:01:08,870 --> 00:00:59,039
a 51.6 degree 136 by 36 statute mile

19
00:01:12,630 --> 00:01:10,789
and the three main engines on atlantis

20
00:01:15,109 --> 00:01:12,640
have now been throttled down to 72

21
00:01:17,109 --> 00:01:15,119
percent of rated thrust as the orbiter

22
00:01:19,190 --> 00:01:17,119
prepares to pass through the area of

23
00:01:27,990 --> 00:01:19,200
maximum dynamic pressure on the vehicle

24
00:01:31,350 --> 00:01:29,670
the engine's now beginning to throttle

25
00:01:48,149 --> 00:01:31,360
back up

26
00:01:52,789 --> 00:01:50,149
all three engines looking really good

27
00:01:54,469 --> 00:01:52,799
back at full throttle now at liftoff the

28
00:01:56,709 --> 00:01:54,479
fully fueled shuttle boosters and

29
00:01:59,749 --> 00:01:56,719
external tank weighed four and a half

30
00:02:03,429 --> 00:01:59,759
million pounds it now has burned half of

31
00:02:04,950 --> 00:02:03,439
that lift off weight and propellant

32
00:02:06,950 --> 00:02:04,960
one minute thirty seconds into the

33
00:02:08,790 --> 00:02:06,960
flight all three auxiliary power units

34
00:02:11,029 --> 00:02:08,800
that provide hydraulic power to the

35
00:02:14,150 --> 00:02:11,039
orbiter's systems in good shape as are

36
00:02:16,150 --> 00:02:14,160
the fuel cells providing electricity to

37
00:02:19,110 --> 00:02:16,160
all of the systems on board atlantis is

38
00:02:21,350 --> 00:02:19,120
already 19 miles in altitude downrange

39
00:02:27,270 --> 00:02:21,360
from the kennedy space center 20 miles

40
00:02:31,670 --> 00:02:29,430
coming up on staging the point at which

41
00:02:45,670 --> 00:02:31,680
the twin solid rocket boosters burn out

42
00:02:51,190 --> 00:02:49,190
booster separation confirmed

43
00:02:53,270 --> 00:02:51,200
the onboard guidance system has done its

44
00:02:55,430 --> 00:02:53,280
job of settling out any of the

45
00:02:57,589 --> 00:02:55,440
dispersions that have been introduced at

46
00:03:00,550 --> 00:02:57,599
the booster separation

47
00:03:03,670 --> 00:03:00,560
atlantis performance thus far is uh

48
00:03:06,470 --> 00:03:03,680
exactly as planned as atlantis heads

49
00:03:09,430 --> 00:03:06,480
into orbit uh flying heads down wings

50
00:03:10,630 --> 00:03:09,440
level into a historic sunset on its 32nd

51
00:03:18,790 --> 00:03:10,640
mission

52
00:03:24,149 --> 00:03:21,910
atlantis can now reach zaragoza in spain

53
00:03:26,070 --> 00:03:24,159
in the event of a single engine failure

54
00:03:28,630 --> 00:03:26,080
however all three main engines are still

55
00:03:30,830 --> 00:03:28,640
operating at full throttle 104 percent

56
00:03:33,350 --> 00:03:30,840
of rated

57
00:03:35,190 --> 00:03:33,360
thrust the auxiliary power unit's still

58
00:03:37,110 --> 00:03:35,200
in great shape as are the fuel cells

59
00:03:40,149 --> 00:03:37,120
atlantis is traveling 3

60
00:03:41,030 --> 00:03:40,159
700 miles per hour at an altitude of 47

61
00:03:42,710 --> 00:03:41,040
miles

62
00:04:06,229 --> 00:03:42,720
downrange from the kennedy space center

63
00:04:10,070 --> 00:04:08,390
atlantis is getting a boost from the

64
00:04:12,550 --> 00:04:10,080
orbital maneuvering system engines on

65
00:04:14,309 --> 00:04:12,560
the tail of the vehicle those

66
00:04:31,749 --> 00:04:14,319
have been burning now for about one and

67
00:04:38,550 --> 00:04:35,350
atlantis your negative return

68
00:04:40,550 --> 00:04:38,560
copy scorch negative return

69
00:04:42,310 --> 00:04:40,560
negative return means atlantis can no

70
00:04:44,150 --> 00:04:42,320
longer return to the kennedy space

71
00:04:46,469 --> 00:04:44,160
center in the event of an engine failure

72
00:04:48,950 --> 00:04:46,479
it's already traveling too far too far

73
00:04:51,350 --> 00:04:48,960
high and too fast to return to the

74
00:04:54,469 --> 00:04:51,360
launch site

75
00:04:56,150 --> 00:04:54,479
now traveling 6 000 miles per hour 180

76
00:04:59,510 --> 00:04:56,160
miles from the kennedy space center at

77
00:05:00,950 --> 00:04:59,520
an altitude of 62 miles or about 330

78
00:05:03,270 --> 00:05:00,960
thousand feet

79
00:05:04,950 --> 00:05:03,280
this view from a camera on the external

80
00:05:06,150 --> 00:05:04,960
tank looking down the length of the

81
00:05:09,749 --> 00:05:06,160
orbiter

82
00:05:29,909 --> 00:05:09,759
as atlantis heads into orbit on its 32nd

83
00:05:29,919 --> 00:05:36,070
atlantis you are presta ato

84
00:05:39,909 --> 00:05:37,990
atlantis can reach orbit on two engines

85
00:05:42,550 --> 00:05:39,919
should one fail at this point however

86
00:05:44,710 --> 00:05:42,560
all three are still in great shape i've

87
00:05:46,870 --> 00:05:44,720
got a report that the flash evaporator

88
00:05:49,749 --> 00:05:46,880
system providing cooling to all of the

89
00:05:50,550 --> 00:05:49,759
systems is also operating normally as

90
00:05:53,670 --> 00:05:50,560
well

91
00:05:56,950 --> 00:05:53,680
atlantis is traveling 7 700 miles per

92
00:06:12,550 --> 00:05:56,960
hour 278 miles downrange

93
00:06:23,270 --> 00:06:16,790
atlantis you are single engine ops three

94
00:06:28,230 --> 00:06:25,590
standing by for the guidance system to

95
00:06:30,230 --> 00:06:28,240
take over control of atlantis and roll

96
00:06:32,390 --> 00:06:30,240
the vehicle to a heads up position this

97
00:06:35,749 --> 00:06:32,400
roll to heads up

98
00:06:38,390 --> 00:06:35,759
allows for

99
00:06:42,629 --> 00:06:38,400
atlantis you are press to mikko and

100
00:06:45,990 --> 00:06:42,639
single engine zaragoza 104.

101
00:06:48,070 --> 00:06:46,000
copy press single engines for 104.

102
00:06:50,390 --> 00:06:48,080
atlantis can reach a safe orbit on two

103
00:06:59,589 --> 00:06:50,400
engines now

104
00:07:05,270 --> 00:07:02,070
that reference to the guidance system's

105
00:07:07,430 --> 00:07:05,280
choice of the role maneuver uh nominal

106
00:07:11,350 --> 00:07:07,440
shutdown on all three you will be go for

107
00:07:17,350 --> 00:07:14,150
atlantis got these nominal shutdowns go

108
00:07:19,350 --> 00:07:17,360
for the plus x go for the pitch

109
00:07:21,830 --> 00:07:19,360
good read back and that rolled heads up

110
00:07:25,029 --> 00:07:21,840
provides a good satellite communications

111
00:07:27,510 --> 00:07:25,039
link with atlantis continuing its uh

112
00:07:29,749 --> 00:07:27,520
travel into space approaching seven

113
00:07:35,029 --> 00:07:29,759
seven minutes into the flight atlantis

114
00:07:38,150 --> 00:07:36,150
104.

115
00:07:40,150 --> 00:07:38,160
atlantis can reach orbit on one engine

116
00:07:43,430 --> 00:07:40,160
now should two fail however all three

117
00:07:48,390 --> 00:07:46,550
atlantis is now traveling 13 000 miles

118
00:07:50,710 --> 00:07:48,400
per hour

119
00:07:53,430 --> 00:07:50,720
580 miles away from the kennedy space

120
00:07:56,950 --> 00:07:53,440
center at an altitude of 340 000 feet or

121
00:08:01,670 --> 00:07:58,629
shortly the three main engines will

122
00:08:03,670 --> 00:08:01,680
begin throttling back to maintain the

123
00:08:05,589 --> 00:08:03,680
structural limits on the orbiter as it

124
00:08:19,830 --> 00:08:05,599
approaches loads near three times

125
00:08:24,629 --> 00:08:22,150
all quiet here in mission control with

126
00:08:26,869 --> 00:08:24,639
all systems in great shape atlantis is

127
00:08:28,469 --> 00:08:26,879
traveling fifteen thousand five hundred

128
00:08:29,909 --> 00:08:28,479
miles per hour

129
00:08:33,269 --> 00:08:29,919
approaching eight minutes into the

130
00:08:35,589 --> 00:08:33,279
flight downrange 740 miles at an

131
00:08:49,910 --> 00:08:35,599
altitude of 64 miles

132
00:08:54,949 --> 00:08:52,070
standing by for main engine cutoff

133
00:09:07,670 --> 00:08:54,959
confirmation as atlantis is in excellent

134
00:09:12,389 --> 00:09:09,829
main engine cutoff confirm standing by

135
00:09:27,509 --> 00:09:12,399
for separation from the external fuel

136
00:09:38,389 --> 00:09:29,910
atlantis now flying away from the

137
00:09:43,350 --> 00:09:41,430
plus x uh burn maneuver being performed

138
00:09:45,670 --> 00:09:43,360
by commander ken ham

139
00:09:48,630 --> 00:09:45,680
nominal miko almost one night not
