Description : (La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais)

(03/06/2001) -- At the Shuttle Landing Facility, orbiter Atlantis is towed from the mate/demate device to the Orbiter Processing Facility. A tail cone covers its aft engines. In the background is the Shuttle Carrier Aircraft, a modified Boeing 747, that carried it piggyback known as a ferry flight from California. Atlantis landed Feb. 19 at Edwards Air Force Base concluding mission STS-98. The ferry flight back to KSC began March 1; unfavorable weather conditions kept it on the ground at Altus AFB, Okla., until it could return to Florida March 5. Atlantis will be prepared in the OPF for mission STS-104, the 10th construction flight to the International Space Station, scheduled to launch June 8
