Atlantis to Orbit

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

The Space Shuttle Atlantis, shown here lifting off, carried astronauts to the International Space Station in 2001. A rocket launch bound for space is an event that inspires awe. From a standing start, this two-million-kilogram vehicle accelerates rapidly, reaching incredible speeds and altitudes far beyond what any bird or airplane can achieve.
