Let's light her up one last time! Atlantis overcomes a shaky launch to become the final Nasa shuttle to blast into space

By Daily Mail Reporter/Science And Tech

Last updated at 5:54 PM on 9th July 2011


The space shuttle Atlantis thundered into orbit today, writing the final chapter in a 30-year story of triumphs, tragedy and, ultimately, unfulfilled expectations.

A million-strong crowd crammed into Cape Canaveral surrounding towns to bid an emotional farewell to the shuttle as they watched it lift off on its 135th and final mission.

They lined causeways and beaches around the central Florida site, angling for a last glimpse of the pioneering ship that has defined the U.S. space program for the past 30 years.

While there were nervy moments as the countdown stalled for two minutes at 31 seconds while engineers fixed a problem with launch pad equipment - nothing  could stop the historic lift off.

'Good luck to you and your crew on this final flight of this true American icon,' shuttle launch director Mike Leinbach radioed to the crew minutes before takeoff, adding: 'Have a little fun up there.'

Scroll down for video and a history of the Nasa shuttle programme

It will be at least three years - possibly five or more - before astronauts launch again from U.S. soil, and so this final journey of the shuttle era packed in crowds and roused emotions on a scale not seen since the Apollo moon shots. After days of gloomy forecasts full of rain and heavy cloud cover, the spaceship lifted off at 11.29am local time (16.29 GMT) - just two minutes late - thundering away on the 135th shuttle mission 30 years and three months after the very first flight. The four experienced space fliers rode Atlantis from the same pad used more than a generation ago by the Apollo astronauts. The shuttle was visible for 42 seconds before disappearing into the clouds. Nasa waived its own weather rules to allow the lift-off to go forward. In the end, though, the countdown was delayed not by the weather but by the need to make certain the launch pad support equipment was retracted all the way. The crew will deliver a year's worth of critical supplies to the International Space Station and return with as much rubbish as possible.

Just as the spectators at Cape Canaveral in Florida and tens of  millions of television viewers around the world had given up hope,  Atlantis began to rise Just as the spectators at Cape Canaveral in Florida and tens of millions of television viewers around the world had given up hope, Atlantis began to rise

Commander Christopher Ferguson marked the occasion by announcing 'Let's light this fire one more time' minutes before he blasted into orbit.

'The shuttle is always going to be a reflection of what a great nation can do when it dares to be bold and commits to follow through,' he added.

It will be at least three years – possibly five or more – before astronauts are launched again from U.S. soil, and so this final journey of the shuttle era packed in crowds and roused emotions on a scale not seen since the Apollo moon shots.

Nasa has set a long-term goal of  flying to an asteroid and eventually Mars. 'Enjoy a little time here with your families again. But we've got a lot of work to do. We've got another programme that we've got to get under way,' Nasa administrator Charles Bolden told the launch control team after Atlantis reached orbit.

He added: 'We know what we're doing. We know how to get there. We've just got to convince everybody else that we know what we're doing.'

Atlantis's crew will deliver a year's worth of critical supplies to the International Space Station and return with as much trash as possible. The shuttle is scheduled to come home on July 20 after 12 days in orbit.

When Atlantis returns to Earth for the final time, it will be placed in a museum with the other two shuttles.

As it lifted off, Mr Boden said: 'The space shuttle spreads its wings one final time for the start of a sentimental journey into history. We turn the page on a remarkable period in America's history in space, while beginning the next chapter in our nation's extraordinary story of exploration.'

Those watching from Cape Canaveral and surrounding towns included Nasa's original shuttle pilot, Robert Crippen, now 73. He flew Columbia, along with Apollo 16 moon-walker John Young, on the test flight in 1981.

[FunOnTheNet] Russia's Underwater Crystal Cave

 




Underwater wonderland: Divers take the plunge to reveal stunning images of beautiful crystal cave in depths of Russia

By Daily Mail Reporter



It looks like the set of a Hollywood action movie but these images were taken by a team of expert cave divers in the depths of Russia.

A team of daring cave divers have produced an incredible photo-reportage of the longest underwater gypsum crystal cave in the world. 

The Orda Cave in the western Urals region is three miles of eerily dramatic natural channels created by water so clear divers can see over 50 yards ahead of them.

Over a period of six months the intrepid team led by photographer and journalist, Victor Lyagushkin, 40, from Russia explored the water filled cave tunnels at temperatures barely above freezing.

Scroll down to see a video of divers in the Orda Cave

'This cave is unique - it is real wonder of nature,' explained Mr Lyagushkin. 'But if you want to see Orda cave for yourself, you must be experienced cave diver. 

'It means few years of hard training, a lot of heavy and expensive equipment. That is why we decided to show pictures to people across the world.

'Now you need not visit Russia and go underwater - you may see it sitting in your own chair.'

Together the divers documented their journey into Orda Cave as part of a project to raise awareness of the beauty and fragility of this barely explored natural wonder. 

But the expedition was not without danger.

'We do control our risks - before each dive we discuss each moment, to find a solution to any situation we are faced with,' said Mr Lyagushkin.

'If it is too risky, we do not dive. We must be aware of each step, or you will die. 

'But the reward is the possibility to see something beautiful, something that nobody has seen before you. 

'For the millions of years this amazing place has existed water has formed it into a palace while no human was here. 

'To visit this cave gives you a special feeling - I think the same feeling cosmonauts on the Moon have. 

'You are hanging with no gravity in the strange unusual world. You fly like a bird over its landscapes.'

All the gear: The top-of-the-range technology has meant that the  group of divers have been able to access this underwater wonderland

The environment of Orda is so delicate that even air bubbles from the divers can damage the ceiling of the cave.

This meant Mr Lyagushkin's team had to construct an underwater funnel to take their air bubbles safely to the mouth of the cave. 


'Scientists are interested in the cave but they cannot get there,' he said. 'In this case, cave divers may help them. 

'We took samples of water and silt and minerals in different parts of the cave to help them investigate the processes.

'If people do not see underwater world, they do not know its value, they do not understand that it must be protected. 

'We hope they will come to know it better through our photos.'
