Space shuttle Atlantis lands in California
Space shuttle Atlantis and its crew landed in the Mojave Desert last night after three days of bad weather prevented the ship from returning to its Florida home port.
Atlantis glided through a hazy sky and touched down 13 days after lifting off for the international space station. During the mission, the five astronauts delivered and installed a £1 billion laboratory that is considered the most sophisticated research module yet to fly in space.
