Space shuttle Atlantis is seen from the 34th floor in the Vehicle Assembly Building before rolling out to Launch Pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Fla., Tuesday, May 31, 2011. Atlantis will make the final flight ever by a space shuttle in just five weeks to end the 30-year program. It heads to the launch pad Tuesday night for a July 8 liftoff; the three-mile trip from the hangar should be completed by the time Endeavour lands at 2:35 a.m. (AP Photo/Chris O'Meara)
