Opis:

On the mate/demate device at Kennedy Space Center's Shuttle Landing Facility, technicians monitor the progress as Atlantis is lifted up from the shuttle carrier aircraft, or SCA, beneath it. The orbiter will be lowered to the ground and then towed to the Orbiter Processing Facility to begin processing for its next launch, mission STS-122 in December. Atlantis had been ferried back from Edwards Air Force Base following mission STS-117.
