NASA / Kim Shiflett The plane space shuttle Atlantis prepares to welcome the planned launch last Friday (08/07/2011) from Kennedy Space Center, Florida, USA.
NASA plans space shuttle launch of the last remaining, Atlantis, to the International Space Station (ISS) on Friday (08/07/2011). The launch will be conducted at 11:26 am local time, or at about 22:30 pm and also be a sign of the end of the career of NASA spacecraft.
Then, will the human space flight to the end? In a press conference in Washington on Friday (07/01/2011), the crew includes astronaut Mark Kelly, who recently completed the Endeavour mission, and Charles Bolden as the NASA official commented.
"Some of my best friend died in a spacecraft. I'm not going to let loose from the observation of space flight," explained Bolden who then cried remembering the death of 14 crew members who died in the Challenger and Columbia.
Challenger exploded only 73 seconds after its launch in 1986, while Columbia was destroyed during Bumu back to finish the mission is completed in 2003. Technical errors and problems at NASA working system be the cause.
Therefore, Bolden asserts, "We will not put an end to human flight into space. We reaffirm the commitment as well as taking an important step and it is difficult to ensure American primacy in space exploration in the future."
Bolden says, the shuttle has to go carry lots of cargo and returned safely. According to Bolden, it was the culmination of achievement and a stepping stone towards a thorough exploration of the solar system and the beginning of things to come.
After the Atlantis mission, NASA astronaut flight will be deposited on a Russian Soyuz-cost 51 million U.S. dollars (equivalent to Rp 434 billion) per unit. In the long term, airlines are now left to the private sector began to compete to develop the space shuttle.
The launch on Friday will be the 37th mission for the Atlantis mission and spacecraft to-135. Astronauts who will fly later was as commander Chris Ferguson, Doug Hurley as pilot, and Sandra Magnus and mission specialists Rex Walheim as. Atlantis mission will last for 12 days, carrying 3600 kg of payload and bring home the ammonia pump is broken. Atlantis also will carry two iPhone 4 will be used to conduct several studies, including the effect of radiation on the iPhone. Having completed his mission, Atlantis will remain at the Kennedy Space Center for the show.
