Oggi, nel 2011, pochi minuti fa, esattamente alle 14:55, partiva #STS134 con a bordo #AMS02 direzione #ISS

@andrea_ferrero se nella domanda includi anche le missioni #Shuttle allora #STS134 con a bordo #AMS02 primo perché ho visto alcune fasi di costruzione dell’asperimento mentre era al #CERN e secondo perché ho visto quella missione sulla rampa di lancio al #KSC! Non ultimo poi ha un logo bellissimo!

The #Orbiter has just returned from STS-134 mission to deliver the #AlphaMagneticSpectrometer02 #AMS02 to the #InternationalSpaceStation #ISS. The #Shuttle is being towed back to an Orbiter Processing Facility #OPF for servicing after this mission.
The Atlantis Orbiter had been rolled out to LC-39A hours earlier for the final Shuttle mission.
