The Space Shuttle Atlantis was retired last year, after successfully completing 33 missions, orbiting the earth over 4000 times and traveling over 126 thousand miles. She was given a royal send off and sent to Cape Canaveral in Florida for a permanent place in history.

If your in the area, stop by and give the old girl a visit.
This picture is of her final landing.
