KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- In the transfer aisle of the Vehicle Assembly Building, workers take a close look at the orbiter Atlantis before it is lifted up into high bay 1. After the lift, it will be lowered onto the mobile launcher platform where the external tank and solid rocket boosters are already stacked. Space Shuttle Atlantis is targeted to roll out to Launch Pad 39A on February 14 for mission STS-117. The mission is No. 21 to the International Space Station and construction flight 13A.
