No, but thanks for the heads-up. And I would be interested in details too!

At 63 pages this is a nice, concise, souvenir, picture book produced by KSC on its newest exhibit.

A couple of pages on Atlantis' background and evolution, followed by several on how it was installed at the impressive new exhibition hall at the KSC Visitor Center. A feat in itself suspending the shuttle at a 45 degree angle above main auditorium.

The second half of the book gives one page info on each of her 33 missions with crew pic and patch. Plenty of color photos too. Even better after one has seen the shuttle close up. Amazing to think she flew so many times!

All times are CT (US)
