RINGSIDE SEAT VIDEOS: The Atlantis space shuttle was launched on-time at at 2:28 PM EST from the Kennedy Space Center today for docking with the International Space Station Wednesday morning for the last human launch of the calendar year. It was a 'flawless climb to orbit.' And, another vid of the launch from the press site and the VIP site.
Only five space shuttle launches remain to the space station before the shuttle fleet is retired in late 2010. STS-130 Endeavour is set for launch February 4, 2010. President Obama is expected to make key civil and commercial space launch policy decisions prior to the year end.
