Today is the anniversary of the final flight of the Space Shuttle. It was at 5:57 AM on July 8, 2011, that the Atlantis shuttle returned to Cape Canaveral, Florida, after 30 years of service.
It all began on April 12, 1981, during the launch of the Columbia space shuttle. The final flight was memorable because this was also the 50th anniversary of the second American human spaceflight, Gus Grissom, on board Liberty Bell 7. One of the distinctive legacies of the shuttle is the construction of the International Space Station, the largest laboratory in Earth orbit. The shuttle was the primary carrier of the heavy payloads that made the International Space Station what it is today.
