CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – In the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, workers observe the movement of space shuttle Atlantis as it is lowered toward the mobile launcher platform. The shuttle will be mated with the external fuel tank and solid rocket boosters on the platform. After additional preparations are made, the shuttle will be rolled out to Launch Pad 39A for a targeted launch on May 12 on the STS-125 mission to service NASA's Hubble Space Telescope.
