Space Shuttle Atlantis today completed the 4th
Shuttle mission to the International Space Station with an on time landing at
KSC's Shuttle Landing Facility (SLF) at 3:56 a.m. on orbit 185. At the
conclusion of mission STS-106, Atlantis and crew had traveled about 4.9 million
miles.
The main landing gear touched down on SLF runway
15 at 3:56:48 a.m. With the aid of its drag chute, Atlantis came to a complete
stop at 3:58:01 a.m. Following routine safing and offloading efforts, workers
will tow Atlantis to Orbiter Processing Facility bay 3 as early as 7:30 a.m.
today.
The flight crew will remain overnight at KSC and
depart for their homes in Houston, Texas, Thursday afternoon. STS-106 marked the
15th nighttime landing in Shuttle history and the 23rd consecutive landing at
KSC.
