00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:42,630
are you ready

2
00:00:45,910 --> 00:00:44,389
space shuttle atlantis now in view of

3
00:00:48,150 --> 00:00:45,920
the cameras there at the kennedy space

4
00:00:50,150 --> 00:00:48,160
center

5
00:00:52,229 --> 00:00:50,160
it's speed 2 900 miles per hour its

00:00:54,229 --> 00:00:52,239
altitude

7
00:00:57,189 --> 00:00:54,239
20 statute miles

8
00:01:02,069 --> 00:00:57,199
it's ranged there from ksc 127 miles our

00:01:02,079 --> 00:01:12,870
choppy

10
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:41,910
didn't work

11
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:50,950
atlantis you can take air data

12
00:01:55,030 --> 00:01:53,350
and call confirming that the two

13
00:01:57,190 --> 00:01:55,040
air data probes on the left and right of

14
00:01:59,109 --> 00:01:57,200
atlantis's nose have been deployed and

15
00:02:01,830 --> 00:01:59,119
receiving good data on the shuttle's

16
00:02:03,190 --> 00:02:01,840
position and speed

17
00:02:04,469 --> 00:02:03,200
and data now being updated in the

18
00:02:08,150 --> 00:02:04,479
shuttle's guidance and navigation

19
00:02:12,949 --> 00:02:11,029
atlantis's current speed mach 2.8

20
00:02:54,550 --> 00:02:12,959
its altitude 16 miles ranged to the

21
00:02:58,070 --> 00:02:56,470
sonic boom is now audible over florida

22
00:03:01,110 --> 00:02:58,080
as atlantis continues to head toward the

23
00:03:06,630 --> 00:03:03,509
its current speed 300 miles per hour its

24
00:03:08,710 --> 00:03:06,640
altitude 14 miles

25
00:03:12,710 --> 00:03:08,720
range to the kennedy space center now 68

26
00:03:17,990 --> 00:03:14,550
space shuttle atlantis now in its final

27
00:03:22,790 --> 00:03:20,630
and a half minutes to go till touchdown

28
00:03:25,430 --> 00:03:22,800
atlantis you are on energy approaching

29
00:03:27,350 --> 00:03:25,440
the hack no changes to winds or weather

30
00:03:29,830 --> 00:03:27,360
you'll be nominal shoot deploy

31
00:03:33,910 --> 00:03:29,840
[Music]

32
00:03:40,390 --> 00:03:33,920
copy no changes nominal shoots

33
00:03:46,550 --> 00:03:44,309
atlantis current speed mach 1.6

34
00:03:49,270 --> 00:03:46,560
its altitude 12 miles range to the

35
00:03:52,869 --> 00:03:49,280
kennedy space center 41 miles continuing

36
00:03:54,390 --> 00:03:52,879
to bear down on runway 3-3

37
00:03:56,149 --> 00:03:54,400
atlanta is now just five minutes away

38
00:03:57,509 --> 00:03:56,159
from touchdown

39
00:03:59,190 --> 00:03:57,519
it is approaching what is known as the

40
00:04:01,589 --> 00:03:59,200
heading alignment cylinder this is an

41
00:04:03,270 --> 00:04:01,599
imaginary circle that is created by the

42
00:04:05,429 --> 00:04:03,280
microwave landing system there at the

43
00:04:07,270 --> 00:04:05,439
kennedy space center it sits off the end

44
00:04:08,949 --> 00:04:07,280
of the runway and is about seven miles

45
00:04:10,550 --> 00:04:08,959
wide

46
00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:10,560
commander ken ham will take control of

47
00:04:13,509 --> 00:04:11,920
the flight at that point in time and

48
00:04:15,110 --> 00:04:13,519
will

49
00:04:17,430 --> 00:04:15,120
steer the shuttle around that imaginary

50
00:04:18,949 --> 00:04:17,440
circle this will allow the proper energy

51
00:04:27,270 --> 00:04:18,959
and the ground track and set up for the

52
00:04:30,150 --> 00:04:28,629
this review from the heads-up display

53
00:04:37,189 --> 00:04:30,160
this is exactly what the crew is seeing

54
00:04:40,710 --> 00:04:39,830
atlantis's current speed 653 miles per

55
00:04:43,110 --> 00:04:40,720
hour

56
00:04:44,550 --> 00:04:43,120
is altitude nine miles

57
00:04:48,790 --> 00:04:44,560
it's range to the kennedy space center

58
00:04:48,800 --> 00:05:05,189
touchdown now just four minutes away

59
00:05:33,990 --> 00:05:16,950
so

60
00:05:38,070 --> 00:05:35,830
pilot tony antonelli now taking control

61
00:05:39,590 --> 00:05:38,080
of the stick for a few minutes steering

62
00:05:41,510 --> 00:05:39,600
atlantis around this heading alignment

63
00:05:44,150 --> 00:05:41,520
circle this is a right overhead turn of

64
00:05:45,830 --> 00:05:44,160
320 degrees this will set up the shuttle

65
00:05:48,790 --> 00:05:45,840
for its final approach and landing there

66
00:05:50,550 --> 00:05:48,800
on runway 3-3

67
00:05:53,189 --> 00:05:50,560
now just three minutes to go the shuttle

68
00:05:56,950 --> 00:05:53,199
is traveling 547 miles per hour its

69
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:01,670
and houston atlanta

70
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:11,830
yeah good luck with that one

71
00:06:16,350 --> 00:06:13,830
now the commander ken ham now taking

72
00:06:19,350 --> 00:06:16,360
control of the

73
00:06:21,830 --> 00:06:19,360
[Music]

74
00:06:21,840 --> 00:06:24,790
absolutely

75
00:06:28,309 --> 00:06:26,309
two and a half more minutes to go in

76
00:06:29,749 --> 00:06:28,319
atlanta's flight

77
00:06:32,230 --> 00:06:29,759
there you see the florida coast coming

78
00:06:34,390 --> 00:06:32,240
into view the shuttle continuing to turn

79
00:06:48,550 --> 00:06:34,400
to the right and line up with runway 3-3

80
00:06:52,790 --> 00:06:50,230
commander ken ham continuing to finish

81
00:07:02,950 --> 00:06:52,800
up this heading alignment circle turn

82
00:07:05,990 --> 00:07:04,710
in just a few seconds the shuttle's crew

83
00:07:13,990 --> 00:07:06,000
will get their first view at the kennedy

84
00:07:17,110 --> 00:07:15,909
atlanta is now traveling 400 miles per

85
00:07:18,629 --> 00:07:17,120
hour

86
00:07:20,950 --> 00:07:18,639
and houston now the left side of the

87
00:07:24,950 --> 00:07:20,960
cockpit has a runway inside

88
00:07:28,309 --> 00:07:26,790
once again this is the heads-up display

89
00:07:31,350 --> 00:07:28,319
that commander ken ham is taking a look

90
00:07:44,390 --> 00:07:31,360
at as he pilots atlantis down toward

91
00:07:48,309 --> 00:07:46,710
space shuttle atlantis now traveling 389

92
00:07:52,390 --> 00:07:48,319
miles per hour it is now on final

93
00:07:55,430 --> 00:07:53,510
during this point in the flight the

94
00:07:58,150 --> 00:07:55,440
shuttle's descent rate is 20 times

95
00:07:59,909 --> 00:07:58,160
steeper than a commercial airliner

96
00:08:04,070 --> 00:07:59,919
its angle of attack more than seven

97
00:08:18,710 --> 00:08:05,749
now under one minute to go in atlantis's

98
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:28,070
so

99
00:08:30,629 --> 00:08:29,589
atlantis now beginning what is known as

100
00:08:36,790 --> 00:08:30,639
the

101
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:44,870
its speed now 320 miles per hour

102
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:53,790
figures down and locked

103
00:08:57,430 --> 00:08:55,350
[Music]

104
00:08:59,670 --> 00:08:57,440
main gear touchdown

105
00:09:01,670 --> 00:08:59,680
atlantis nose being now rotated down

106
00:09:06,790 --> 00:09:01,680
toward the runway the chute being

107
00:09:11,030 --> 00:09:09,190
and nose gear touchdown

108
00:09:12,550 --> 00:09:11,040
space shuttle atlantis now comes home to

109
00:09:13,750 --> 00:09:12,560
the kennedy space center for the final

110
00:09:17,350 --> 00:09:13,760
time

111
00:09:19,509 --> 00:09:17,360
25 years 32 flights and more than 120

112
00:09:20,870 --> 00:09:19,519
million miles traveled

113
00:10:16,550 --> 00:09:20,880
the legacy of atlanta is now in the

114
00:10:20,870 --> 00:10:19,030
copy will stop atlanta stock that uh

115
00:10:22,550 --> 00:10:20,880
landing was something that your air

116
00:10:24,550 --> 00:10:22,560
force crewmate should have really been

117
00:10:27,990 --> 00:10:24,560
proud of that looked pretty sweet

118
00:10:30,470 --> 00:10:28,000
uh for you and your crew uh that was uh

119
00:10:32,310 --> 00:10:30,480
suiting into a incredible mission

120
00:10:33,750 --> 00:10:32,320
i'm sure the station crew members hated

121
00:10:34,870 --> 00:10:33,760
to see you leave but we're glad to have

122
00:10:37,829 --> 00:10:34,880

and uh we'll finish up post landing and

132
00:11:01,030 --> 00:10:59,440
turn this incredible machine back over

133
00:11:03,110 --> 00:11:01,040
to the ground team to put her back in

134
00:11:07,590 --> 00:11:03,120
the barn for a little bit

135
00:11:10,949 --> 00:11:09,509
and with those words from sts-132

control houston

139
00:11:23,269 --> 00:11:19,440
atlantis has wrapped up a 32-year career

140
00:11:26,590 --> 00:11:23,279
32 missions as well as this 132 flight
