STS-66 Atlantis Landing Approach at Edwards
The Space Shuttle Atlantis approaches runway 22 at Edwards, California, to complete the STS-66 mission dedicated to the third flight of the Atmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science-3 (ATLAS-3), part of NASAs Mission to Planet Earth program. The astronauts also deployed and retrieved a free-flying satellite designed to study the middle and lower thermospheres and perform a series of experiments covering life sciences research and microgravity processing. The landing was at 7:34 a.m. (PST) November 14, 1994, after being waved off from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, due to adverse weather

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the awe-inspiring moment when the Space Shuttle Atlantis gracefully descends towards runway 22 at Edwards Air Force Base in California. This historic landing marks the successful completion of the STS-66 mission, which was dedicated to advancing our understanding of Earth's atmosphere through NASA's Mission to Planet Earth program. During this groundbreaking mission, Atlantis carried the Atmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science-3 (ATLAS-3), a cutting-edge scientific instrument designed to study our planet's upper atmosphere. Additionally, these skilled astronauts deployed and retrieved a free-flying satellite specifically engineered to explore the middle and lower thermospheres. Through a series of meticulously planned experiments encompassing life sciences research and microgravity processing, they pushed the boundaries of human knowledge. However, reaching this triumphant landing was not without its challenges. Originally scheduled for touchdown at Kennedy Space Center in Florida, adverse weather conditions forced a wave-off from that location. Undeterred by setbacks, these intrepid explorers navigated their way across space until finally touching down on November 14th, 1994 at precisely 7:34 a. m. , Pacific Standard Time. This extraordinary image encapsulates both humanity's relentless pursuit of scientific discovery and our unwavering determination to overcome obstacles in order to expand our horizons beyond Earth's limits. It serves as an enduring testament to mankind's indomitable spirit as we continue venturing into uncharted territories for the betterment of all humankind.
