Are NASA going to release the flyaround imagery?
It's been 5 days now - usually it only takes 2 or 3. We got them faster on STS-131, despite the broken Ku!

Don't forget that some of these pictures were inadvertently deleted off of one of the image cards by someone on the ground (if you heard the conversation when they realized what had occurred, Hock was none too pleased). From what I understand they’re working to recover the delete files.

Ah yes, I forgot about that. Thanks!

Are you kidding? I was up at 04:30 local to confirm de-orbit burn, had tears in my eyes as she landed, and then moped around at work all day (and reminded everyone I ran in to that Atlantis had landed for [apparently] the final time).
...and yes, the post-landing presser was a good one--thanks to everyone here for posting images and the link to said presser.
Did any one else find this landing more emotional than usual. I ended up standing in respect as Atlantis made its final approach and landing.

Yeah my wife has gotten sick of me talking about Atlantis the last few days, she doesnt understand my love for the space shuttle program, and it was really hard watching Atlantis come back for her final landing knowing as each second went by with her in the air on final approach, she would never grace the skies again.

Has anyone seen the Entry Flight Control Team video? Haven't seen it on NTV nor on John44's website.

Another NASA TV Video File note: in addition to running the "Ice Team" video (also available on their YouTube channel), the Public Channel is running a few minutes of edited footage of the tow of the orbiter from the runway back to OPF-1. Not sure if this is yet another style change to the Public Channel, but some of these items are running both Public and Media Channel versions. (Short voice-over for the former, "clean" version more suitable for historical archiving for the latter.)
Here are the descriptions from the Media Channel advisory:
ITEM 2 - 'ICE TEAM' INSPECTS NASA'S SHUTTLE ATLANTIS DURING STS-132 LAUNCH COUNTDOWN ' KSC (NEW)
Members of NASA Kennedy Space Center's Final Inspection Team, known as the 'Ice Team', performs a 'walkdown' of Kennedy's Launch Pad 39A during shuttle Atlantis' STS-132 launch countdown on May 14. The six-member team walks on every level of the pad's fixed service structure inspecting the shuttle, external fuel tank, solid rocket booster, pad structure and ground equipment for signs of ice buildup, debris or anything else that might be amiss prior to launch. As part of the inspection, photos are taken and transmitted to the launch team for review. A videographer for NASA was included as a member of the team to capture the first-ever up close, high-definition video of this important and hazardous inspection process.
TRT: 15:00
ITEM 4 - SHUTTLE ATLANTIS RETURNS TO PROCESSING HANGAR FOLLOWING STS-132 LANDING ' KSC (NEW)
Shuttle Atlantis was towed from the Shuttle Landing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center to its hangar, Orbiter Processing Facility-1, following landing on its final scheduled flight. Atlantis touched down at Kennedy's shuttle runway May 26 at 8:48 a.m. EDT and was back in OPF-1 about five-and-a-half hours later. Atlantis and its six astronauts spent 12 days in space, completing the STS-132 mission to the International Space Station. Inside the processing facility, Atlantis will be prepared for the unlikely event it is needed as a rescue spacecraft for the final planned shuttle flight, Endeavour's STS-134 mission.
TRT: 6:58
Since it's a holiday weekend, those items should be replayed several times in case anyone else is interested.

you mean I didn't have to watch the 2 hour 30 minute coverage of it!

If you mean trading the live coverage for up-close footage, of course not -- you have to watch both.

Considering I'm almost all the way across the country, I'd never get the up close coverage, but it's nice to have the 2h30m camera coverage because it's more than you'd see shown on NASA SpaceCenter. dah-dah- dah... dah-dah-dah.

WOW!
That's fantastic! I'd love to share it on another site (if you don't mind), do you have a link to the photo on a website of yours so I could give you credit?
