Two space shuttles on fire pads. 09/2008 - Two Space Shuttles on launch pads. 09/2008 - View of shooting steps A and B from the Kennedy Space center in Florida on September 20, 2008. In the foreground, the shuttle Atlantis, in the background, the shuttle Endeavour on firing pad B. This is the first time since July 2001 that two shuttles have been simultaneously on the firing steps. The shuttle Endeavour was ready to assist the shuttle Atlantis for a rescue mission in case of a problem. Finally, the planned flight of the Atlantis shuttle (STS-125, repair of the Hubble satellite) was postponed until May 2009. The shuttle Endeavour collapsed in November 2008 to continue the construction of the international space station (mission STS-126). Space shuttle Atlantis (foreground) sits on Launch Pad A and Endeavour on Launch Pad B at Nasa's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. At the left of each shuttle are the open rotating service structures with the payload changeout rooms revealed. The rotatin

The shuttle Endeavour collapsed in November 2008 to continue the construction of the international space station (mission STS-126). Space shuttle Atlantis (foreground) sits on Launch Pad A and Endeavour on Launch Pad B at Nasa's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. At the left of each shuttle are the open rotating service structures with the payload changeout rooms revealed. The rotatin

Launch of the New Horizons probe by an Atlas V - New Horizons launch by an Atlas V rocket - Decolving the Atlas 5 rocket carrying the New Horizons probe. The New Horizons probe was launched on 19 January 2006 to Jupiter, then Pluto and Charon, which it will reach in 2015 and Kuiper's objects in 2020. From lightning masts surrounding the launch pad, Nasa's New Horizons spacecraft roars into the blue sky aboard an Atlas V rocket spewing flames and smoke. Liftoff was on time at 2 p.m. EST from Complex 41 on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. This was the third launch attempt in as many days after scrubs due to weather concerns. The compact, 1,050 - pound piano - sized probe will get a boost from a kick - stage solid propellant motor for its journey to Pluto. New Horizons will be the fastest spacecraft ever launched, reaching lunar orbit distance in just nine hours and passing Jupiter 13 months later.

The MLP is moved by the Crawler - Transporter underneath, which stands 20 feet high, 131 feet long and 114 feet wide. It moves on eight tracks, each containing 57 shoes, or cleats, weighing one ton each. Loaded with the Space Shuttle, the Crawler can move at a maximum speed of approximately 1 mile an hour. A leveling system in the Crawler keeps the Shuttle vertical while negotiating the 5 percent grade leading to the top of the launch pad. Launch of Discovery on its Return to Flight mission, STS-114, is targeted for May 15 with a launch window that extends to June 3.
