Jul 21st
Atlantis bid final farewell to International Space Station and headed towards home. Atlantis was set to land at 5:56 am (0956 GMT), making it a rare night landing, and NASA was describing a “gorgeous night at the Kennedy Space Center.”
The crew of Atlantis on Tuesday bade a bittersweet goodbye to the International Space Station ending the final visit by a space shuttle to ISS. The crew of Atlantis began deorbit procedures from the ISS at 0628 GMT about 350 kilometers above the Pacific Ocean to begin its final return to Earth. “Thanks so much for hosting us. It’s a great station, and it’s been an absolute pleasure,” Atlantis commander Chris Ferguson said of his crew’s eight-day stay at the ISS.
“We’ll miss you guys. Godspeed, soft landing and we’ll see you back on Earth in the fall,” space station crewmember Ronald Garan, a Nasa flight engineer, said as Atlantis floated away. “It’s been an incredible ride,” said Ferguson of the final shuttle mission. “We will never forget the role that the space shuttle played in (the station’s) creation,” he said. “Farewell ISS, make us proud.”

Jul 21st
A sinkhole of 40 feet deep appeared beneath a women’s bed in Guatemala City. The sinkhole that appeared late on Monday was 12.2 metres (40 feet) deep and 80 centimetres (32 inches) in diameter. Guatemala City, built on volcanic deposits, is especially prone to sinkholes. Sinkholes are natural depressions in the earth that can range anywhere from a few feet to hundreds of acres wide, and measure a shallow foot to 100 feet deep.
“When we heard the loud boom we thought a gas canister from a neighboring home had exploded, or there had been a crash on the street,” said Inocenta Hernandez, a 65 year-old widow. “We rushed out to look and saw nothing. A gentleman told me that the noise came from my house, and we searched until we found it under my bed,” said Hernandez.
In May 2010, a sinkhole about 60 feet across and 100 feet deep opened in the area, swallowing buildings and an intersection. In 2007, another sinkhole More >

Atlantis space shuttle successfully docked with the International Space Station
Jul 11th
Atlantis space shuttle successfully docked with the International Space Station for one last time at 15:07 GMT yesterday. The 12-day mission will bring NASA’s shuttle program to an end.
Two days after its launch from the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida, Atlantis became the 37th shuttle to dock with the ISS. Before connecting with the ISS, the Atlantis did the customary back flip to allow station crew to photograph its heat shield. The snaps will be sent to ground controllers to check for any damage.
Atlantis is carrying the Raffaello multipurpose logistics module, loaded with spares and supplies. Pilot Doug Hurley and mission specialist Sandy Magnus will today use the ISS’s Canadarm2 robot limb to shift the module from the shuttle’s cargo bay to the station’s Harmony node. Atlantis is also carrying enough replacement parts to keep the space station operating once the shuttle program is shut down.
It is carrying the Robotic Refueling Mission (RRM) experiment, designed to test tools, technologies and techniques needed More >
