Watch a bit of space history as it happens!
Join us in the Earth Revealed exhibit on Friday to watch a live simulcast of the launch of the space shuttle Atlantis. This mission, STS-132, is the final mission for Atlantis and only one of three shuttle missions remaining.
Three MSI staff members will be at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, and we'll chat with them via webcast at 10 a.m., 11 a.m., noon and 1 p.m. After the last webcast chat, we’ll connect to the live NASA feed to broadcast the historic launch, which is scheduled for 1:20 p.m. Central time.
Visit NASA's STS-132 mission information page to learn more.
