  beginning of the end...bitter sweet...
  

  
  Still some (not much) hope of STS-135.
  

  
  the important thing is that there is still hope!

• She's a beauty. Proud that my tax money is in a very small way contributing to what I'm seeing here tonight.

• Is anyone there on the ground that can tell if the number of people is a larger crowd then normal, given that as it currently stands, is here final rollout?  Seems that NTV is picking up a large number of voices in the background.

  As they trained the floodlights on Atlantis outside the VAB, my wife noted that it looks like the coming out for a big star.
  
  Yep.  One of the three biggest stars, on or off the planet.
  
  Hard to consider this is the final rollout for Atlantis.
  
  Go Atlantis!  Go STS-132!
  
  Happy Landings...

  Definitely bittersweet, as the fanfare is nice, but it's probably due to the anticipated final curtain call.
