ATLANTIS READY TO LAUNCH !

Despite previously questionable weather and equipment problems on the shuttle's external tanks, the day is beautiful and Atlantis is now ready to launch escorting the Columbus Science Lab, built by the European Space Agency, to the Space Station.

This module contains equipment for two experiments, one to study the sun and the other other " to test materials for future space vehicles", per
Space station program manager, Alan Thirkettle.

The Columbus module will be used to receive supplies from an unmanned shuttle system soon to be launched by the European Space Agency and will transport up to six tons of necessary supplies and construction materials to the Space Station per trip.
