CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – At NASA's Kennedy Space Center, the space shuttle Atlantis pauses at Space Florida's Exploration Park during its 10-mile journey to the Kennedy Visitor Complex. The stop also provided a viewing opportunity for Visitor Complex guests before completing the trip at its new home. As part of transition and retirement of the Space Shuttle Program, Atlantis is to be displayed at Kennedy's Visitor Complex beginning in the summer of 2013. Over the course of its 26-year career, Atlantis traveled 125,935,769 miles during 307 days in space over 33 missions.
